The preparations, now underway to re-carpet the road leading to the Diyawanna ‘palace’, have raised many an eyebrow, they say.
Many people in the area wonder why the authorities concerned are in a mighty hurry to break up this road which is in good condition for re-carpeting. They say that it is a crime to spend public funds on the Diyawanna access road which requires no repairs or improvement when there is a crying need to build new roads in the country’s backwoods where a sizable segment of the population has no access to a road for a mile or two from their homes. “There are many villages in our country which are not accessible by a motor vehicle. It is a big problem for these villagers to take a bad patient to hospital in an emergency. But the authorities are more concerned about mollycoddling the ‘haves’ like the ‘225 visitors to the Diyawanna palace’,” they say.

Which is more important? Wasting public money in re-development or putting them in the politicians pockets !!!?
