Coconuts play a vital role in the politics of Mahinda Rajapaksa and his loyalists. They believe that fruitful results are emerging from the lakhs of coconuts they dashed into bits at kovils and temples against the government and its members ' Results are surfacing as an outcome of dashing coconuts', said Mahinda Rajapaksa having paid homage to the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy. When he made that statement at the entrance to the Temple,Dr. Rajitha Senaratne was bed-ridden in a Singapore Hospital awaiting coronary by-pass surgery.
When Rajitha was airlifted to a Singapore Hospital, Mahinda loyalists used the social media to claim that their exercise in dashing coconuts against the government yielded favourable results. It was the same story that this group spread through the social media outlets when the Ven.Maduluwawe Sobhitha Thera passed away in Singapore.
When Minister M.K.A.D.S. Gunawardena also died, these Mahinda loyalists used the facebook and social media to state that Gunawardene faced retribution for what he (Gunewardena) did to Mahinda. When octogenarian politician Dr.WishwaWarnapala who had nothing to do with the past presidential poll passed away last week, Mahinda loyalists spread the same charge against him. So the Mahinda loyalists are of the view that Rajitha had to undergo by-pass surgery for having betrayed Mahinda. In the same trend, this group thinks it can topple the government by dashing coconuts.
During the Premadasa regime the then Opposition Leader Ms.Sirima Bandaranaike slipped and fell down the stairway at her residence in Rosmead Place. She was at that time in a depressed state of mind over differences with her son Anura.
