According to the rock inscription found near the Sripada, believed to have been engraved during the time of King Nissanka Malla, those who stole State assets would be reborn as dogs and crows, President Maithripala Sirisena said on Wednesday.
Addressing a ceremony held to mark the 125th anniversary of the Archaeology Department in Colombo, he said that those in power should always keep in their mind that they should not steal State assets, and there would be consequences if they did so.
"I am asking how much this Nissanka Malla inscription is relevant to yesteryear and to today. I, as the first servant of the people, suggest that this edict be inscribed in a plaque and placed in all offices from that of the President, Ministers and government officials,” the President said.
Addressing the event held at the Department premises, the President said that the artefacts in the Department were the evidence of a nation's history.
“To build the nation and the country, we should not be confined only to speak of our proud history. All of us should totally commit ourselves to enrich future generations with the benefit of our proud history,” he said.
President Sirisena said he had received information about 42 high ranking positions at the Department of Archaeology remaining vacant during the past few years.
“The previous Government should be held responsible for the accusations against the Department of Archaeology during the last few years,” the President said.
He said as a new Government his administration would provide sufficient physical and human resources needed for the Department and would give the opportunity to move forward with the new technology.
President Sirisena offered floral tributes to the statue of the eminent archaeologist Senarath Paranavithana at the premises.
He also declared open the newly constructed Dhatu Mandiraya at the Department of Archaeology.
The President inaugurated the exhibition organised by the Department of Archaeology for exposition of King Dutugemunu relics and Archaeological artefacts.
During the ceremony “Eda saha Ada” archaeological souvenir was presented to the President.
A stamp and a first day cover also presented to President Sirisena marking the 125th anniversary of the Department of Archaeology. A special memento too was presented to the President during the ceremony.
Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, several ministers and officials were also present. (Sandun A Jayasekera)

Former President was not interested in preserving Old Archiological evidences, Monuments and History. He was in an illusion to have his history as the history of this country.

Please do not insult dogs, they are of a higher pedigree than most politicians of yesterday and today -Mr. President you have shocked the world and made SL a laughing stock.. How in Gods name you were appointed a President ??? It is very sad that politician have no idea about shame and also they forget what they said the previous hour. You all have come to fill the pockets and not take care of the people. Most politicians have no educational qualifications and would not be able to even face a basic interview as a peon in any leading corporate office.

You have no rights to blame to swindlers while you giving nominations to the swindlers. What you said in presidential election that you didn’t shake hand to Rajapaksha because you didn’t want to get dirty your clean hand. Now you giving nomination to those swindlers (Rajapakse and gang) from your clean hands. You betrayed 6.2 m million who wotted you without thinking their lives. They didn’t expect from you personal things, just they expect sweep out those swindlers from the sri lanka politics. But now they are hopeless. Thank you very much sir what you have done for the nation. But one thing sure people will throw stone at you near future

Giving alarm for goons about next life is good with 125 year old comment by King Nissankamalla , but same time we want you to remember comments you gave against Mahinda and not to give nomination. But still we like to trust you as still spoon is in your hand.

Who is the biggest swindler today? Is it Mahinda or My3. It is definitely My3 because he promised us that he will not give nomination to Mahinda. As the leader of SLFP and UPFA if he had to bend and fall at the feet of Rajapakse he should at least have the courtsy to resign at this Presidential seat. My3 promised us that he will bring Yahapalanaya, he openly said that he would charge Rajapakse for all the killings and Paga he has got. What did My3 do?
