Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Dehiwala-Mt. Lavinia Organizer and former Mayor Danasiri Amaratunga accused the government leaders for not inviting him for the foundation stone laying ceremony for the new flyover at the Kohuwala junction.

In a Facebook post, he said Highways Minister Johnston Fernando and a Minister from a foreign country attended the event and that he was not invited to the function despite being the Chief Organiser in that area.

"I am the chief organiser of the Dehivala electorate. But, no one invited me to the event. I was not even aware of it. We strove to form this government. It is regrettable that the high ranking leaders of the government have forgotten us now," he said.

He said in the post that he still has great respect and honour for Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa.

Ha Ha Ha ! This is what they all want, prominence and not action. These flyovers were designed during the Yahapalanaya government.

This person is neither a minster nor a MP.He is a political appointee in PM's office.

You are not a VIP person so your own party doesn't want you. Better you resign immediately. Before you get HOOO HOOO from the people better to resign.

True organizer must think of the development carried by HE Mahinda Rajapaksa, and appreciate the service to the nation. Criticizing as this guy assumes as important person was childish and real MUTT.

Eran Thursday, 13 January 2022 07:52 PM

There are others too who are organisers. Sunethra Ranasingha, Channa Wickum , etc. Dhanasiri is a defeated candidate

Wijedasa Friday, 14 January 2022 11:45 AM

Sirisena Friday, 14 January 2022 12:35 PM
