Deputy Speaker Chandima Weerakkody has pointed that the people do not oppose the Government. They are against the Opposition. He claimed that the people have even rejected Opposition leaders.
The Deputy Speaker said that a massive rally was recently held at Vajira Abeywardene’s residence. The UNP could not collect a number of persons from the village even from the District for this meeting. The UNP is planning to hold a massive protest at Hyde Park in Colombo. They are organizing this protest in a small venue such as the Hyde Park. He challenged that they could not gather crowds for the protest. There is a strong disapproval to the Opposition today. The opposition cannot feel the pulse of the people or even their needs. It has no need to serve the people. The Deputy Speaker added that the Mahinda Rajapaksa Government has assumed this responsibility.
The Deputy Speaker was addressing the members of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party Bala Mandalaya of the Habaraduwa Ahangama Divison in Galle. He asserted that demonstrations staged by the Opposition cannot cause any harm to the President or the Government.
