You are wrong or not correct or incorrect. Start with Sri Jayawardenapura. It is the breeding ground of the drug menace. More information may be obtained from Sarth Fonseka.

Hon'ble Minister, you must be so careful as the United States will target you to oust from the post you are holding, the way they did on Gotabaya Rajapaksa. The US needs Drug Menace, LTTE Terrorism, Underworld Gangs, FAKE-Corona to sell their VACCINES to earn MONEY, through which they build their economy.

Keep a tab on those 3 wheelers which haunt junctions close to schools. Those who are eternally parked. Do a random Chech and see?

School children travel by public transport too. You will need to start checking all private buses, like checking for bombs during the war. Kindly ask both public and private school principals to make sure that no vendors hang around their schools selling sweets, ice-cream and many such items to the students. It is indeed the responsibility of school authorities to put a stop to vendors hanging around schools. If they cannot, then they must get the help of the police. Also, there should be NO 3wheeler parks near schools. These activities take place a lot in Mount Lavinia where there are schools on the beach side.There are many prostitutes roaming around that area at any time of the day. But unfortunately, nobody seems to care about any of these things, neither the school authorities nor the police!

Checking school kids is good if it is carried out to trace the source and then nab the dealer and free kids of this drug menace .We read that a tuck shop person was caught selling at a school ..but did they go a step further to find the supplier ?
