State Minister Arundika Fernando today said that he would resign from his post if a vehicle belonging to the Coconut Development Board (CDB) was involved in the assault of the Ragama medical faculty undergrads.

He said an investigation would be carried out if any vehicle from the CDB was involved in the incident.

Three medical faculty students have been hospitalized after a group of thugs attacked the hostel of Kelaniya University’s Faculty of Medicine in Ragama last night.

If ministers are honest and genuine, by now 90% of them should have been resigned. Tell us who has resigned so far for their wrong?

If he keeps his word (which he may not) he will have to resign as the the car was from his ministry. What a joker! This is the same man who saw Eknaligoda on the oversea trip.

Please resign and see the outcome. If you are not involve they will give you back the post. Keep it up.

By now it is very clear what the vehicle involved is and who the main culprit is. We hope that this minister will honour his word.

The son may have done on his own volition. Therefore not just to blame the father, who may not have known the ill-doings of the son. That is the reality
