The Jathika Hela Urumaya (JHU) said today it would sue Prime Minister D.M. Jayaratne for slander and demand one billion rupees in damages if he failed to apologise in public for making derogatory remarks on JHU Leader Ven. Omalpe Sobhitha Thera.

The JHU said the Prime Minister had claimed that Ven. Omalpe Sobhitha Thera was attempting to link him with a container carrying 260 kg of heroin because of personal animosity. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

1. How many Mad things or Mistakes one has to do to get a transfer or a Punishment in Sri Lankan Parliament?
2. Aren't there any intelligent and able people for the post of PM in the Wonder of Asia?
3. When will the motherland become a pleasant place to live with disabled Ministers?
4. Benefits of new Ports and Airports are for Minsters in the Parliament or for common people and so, where are they?

What the JHU should do is to get out of this stinking government and launch a crusade against corruption and fraud instead of hanging on to the government to enjoy the privileges. If they have the guts to do that, there will be a mass of people who will support them. In any case, their avowed objective to join this government, i.e. to usher in a "Dharmishta" rule, has complete gone topsy turvy.

I think not only the PM but also the President should make an unqualified public apology. Further this man should be removed from the premiership if this government has any self respect
