Comparing the UNP two and half year tenure in Office when Ranil Wickremesinghe was the Prime Minister and that of Rajapakse ,will bring home to any sensible person the peace, prosperity and lawfulness that prevailed during the UNP era . But, now, every Democratic Institution is threatened, peace is replaced by tyranny and lawlessness, and the country’s economy is in a shambles. People have never suffered such acute hardships as under this Govt. This Govt. is only prolonging its death throes by false promises and a fake war under which it is trying to cover its corruption, wastages, inefficiency and fiscal mismanagement. The cultural, social and Democratic values are crumbling before our own eyes, he bemoaned.
People are going to the Provincial Council polls in these dire circumstances. It is for the people to decide whether they are to vote for the Rajapakse Govt. backing the Terror inflicting Pillayan group wreaking havoc on the civilian population with intimidation and crimes, and court further disaster, or vote for the elephant symbol (UNP –SLMC) and save the country and themselves for the betterment of their children and future generation.
A vote for the UNP –SLMC means a vote for country’s peace, prosperity and progress; and a Society free of corruption, fear and lawlessness, he concluded.
