(Lanka-e-News- 22.Aug.2014, 8.30PM) Medamulana MaRa who is gripped with the fear psychosis that he is going to lose at the forthcoming provincial council elections in the Badulla district has hurriedly appointed two Tamil MPs , P. Digambaran and Prabha Ganeshan as deputy Ministers . They were sworn in yesterday noon before MaRa . Since of late rumors were afloat that Digambaran was going to somersault back to the opposition .It is no secret that Digambaran and Prabha Ganeshan were two most opportunistic politicos who displayed signs of rabies , and therefore scratching all over with an uncontrollable shameless itch at the disgraceful places like rabid dogs, but unlike the latter running away from water, they on the other hand were thirsting for promotions . It is noteworthy these two politicos contested as opposition candidates, but after being elected pole vaulted most shamelessly and sordidly to MaRa’s camp.
Now, MaRa who has a better idea about rabies of his politicos, having been himself one such politico has therefore the cure too – giving them promotions in utter disregard of the interests of the people and country . Digambaran has been appointed as Deputy Minister of social integration while Prabha Ganeshan as deputy Minister of telecommunication and information technology .
Medamulana MaRa ‘s eagerness to promote these two political scoundrels and win elections at any cost has outrun his sureness so much so that he had forgotten decorum and official dress code that usually should be followed by a President of a country when such Ministerial appointments are being given: MaRa had appeared in a casual shirt (with a checked design) and distributed the portfolios resembling a Fish Mudalali of the Kollupitiya fish market distributing fish to vendors after collecting payment .
At least the fish vendors think of their customers when their Mudalali distributes fish , and ensure they are not rotten, but , these somersaulting opportunistic political scoundrels are worse , they don’t care even if it is excreta that is being handed over to them as portfolios by their ‘Mudalali,’ as long as in it them are contained filthy pelf , power and position contributing to their self seeking political opportunism even at the expense of the people and country.
It is a universal truth that haste makes waste. It is very unfortunate that MaRa had not even had the time to think let alone act following the wisdom spelled out in this maxim because of his inordinate obsession with power and overriding selfish ambitions.
