The present government, which is momentarily pushing the entire process of the country into a dark abyss, has proved more than enough in this short period of time that it has no ability or interest to further secure this country.
This government has left the country with a miserable fate without electricity, water and gas. The present government has left a country where inflation has skyrocketed and the cost of living is unbearable. The present government has left a society where education has collapsed, the future of the children has been darkened, the dreams of the younger generation have been shattered, unemployment, stress and unrest have reigned.
The government that came to power by boasting about national security has made the country unable to provide even a single gas cylinder to the people in a hygienic manner and it is understandable that this government has ruined the lives of the people. Due to the arbitrary decisions taken, the entire agriculture of this country has been plunged into a deep abyss and the government is deliberately starving. From small and medium scale entrepreneurs to big entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs are foreshadowing a dark future and the government has no interest in addressing them.
The present government has left the country with an unfortunate era in which the entire population, including all public servants, private sector workers and daily wage laborers, has been plunged into despair. There is already a queue era all over the country and on the other hand the country has reached a point where the number of corona deaths exceeds fourteen thousand. The government did not heed all the warnings we issued from the beginning and therefore brought the danger into the country.
The government, playing with the lives of the people of the country, is adamant about securing its cronies and sacrificing the future of the whole country for the sake of a minority group. The present government has become a government that keeps its eyes and ears closed until foreign powers invade the seas around the country and turn this country into a playground and the government does not even have the strength to recover the damage caused to the country by the Express Pearl ship.
The government has provided all the facilities required to destroy the entire ecosystem of the country and all national resources for the benefit of allies and has completed all the plans to turn this country into a desert land.
Many countries affected by the Corona disaster have initiated short-, medium- and long-term programs for their people and the Sri Lankan government has no plans for any of them. Instead, the government is implementing only the ‘Edawela’ program by highlighting certain topics on a daily basis. They are just programs designed to feed their cronies today.
The fascist existence shown by the government, which has turned even the Supreme Parliament into a hotbed of violence for its own power project, is disgusting. Such devastation is taking place in the country and the people of the country are no longer prepared to trust the present government in the slightest.
Therefore, the government should not hesitate to accept that there is no possibility or ability to build this country in this time of crisis and leave the government to a group that can build this country.
