In the birth of a rebellion, one can only be controlled by repression and there is no other way, Ruling Party MP Namal Rajapaksa said, commenting about the Galleface protests with the reporters after attending a meeting with the Prime Minister at the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Headquarters two days ago (05).
“As the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna, we will be extending our support to His Excellency the President on every good matter for the country.”
Q: The protesters at the moment are withdrawing. In the meantime it is said that repression is in operation?
“In the birth of a rebellion, one can only be controlled by repression. There is no other way, is it?”
Q: Are you suggesting that this method is good?
“First thing is law and order has to be maintained. So, this Galleface was but a small problem.”
