- Wednesday, 13 August 2014

A group of government politicians is due to call on the Mahanayake Theras of the Asgiriya and Malwatte Chapters in Kandy today (13) to inform them about the campaign by Bodu Bala Sena that is being sponsored by the defence secretary, to insult government MPs and ministers, say internal sources of the government.
It is significant that this group is being organized by economic development minister Basil
Rajapaksa, the brother of the president.
This group representing every district will include SLFP general secretary Maithirpala Sirisena, ministers Nimal Siripala de Silva, Janaka Tennakoon, Piyasena Gamage, Salinda Dissanayake and MP Vidura Wickremanayake, and they will make representations to the Mahanayake Theras against the activities of BBS which is creating internal divisions in the government by levelling baseless allegations against its ministers.
