Do not defeat the local government budget and hamper development activities due to personal issues, Eastern Province (EP) Governor Anuradha Yahampath said.

She said this while addressing the local government members of the Trincomalee District.

If there is any issue with the chairman or mayor, the governor requested them not to use the budget as a solution to address it.

"If you are trying to settle personal quarrels with the chairmen by defeating the budget, don't do so. If that happens, the development work of the village will be hampered. If the budgets of the councils are defeated and those councils become unstable, the government's development programme will go backwards," she said. (Chaturnga Samarawickrama)

    Then what do we do to kick you guys out. Local government is a waste to space. Should be abolished.

    It is on personal issues (hunger) that budgets need to be decided.

    Her personal issues are so different from people on the street. She has gas, food fuel for the gas guzzlers. What have the people got? Sweet FA.

    Personal issues matter unless you are a puppet on a string !

    Many given high positions seem to forget their roots and have become political 'mouthpieces' for a Government. It is very sad. It is far better NOT to comment about Government mistakes or suspect dealings rather than put one's foot in the proverbial! MM

    The woman is a lost cause and stooge! Making unfit political appointments ends up in a country that has been ruined and robbed.
