Although the present government came to power claiming to eradicate poverty, they are now eradicating the poor, says Samagi Jana Balawega MP Harshana Rajakaruna.
“They came to eradicate poverty, but the people of this country did not think that they would eradicate the poor like this. The increase in fuel prices has led to an increase in the prices of all goods and services. What has Minister Basil Rajapaksa done when he came to power? What relief was provided? One thing has happened in the end. Whatever it is, he has been acquitted of his charges. We have to force this government to do nothing but provide relief to the people. ”
Samagi Jana Balawegaya MP Harshana Rajakaruna was speaking to the media during a protest in Dompe yesterday (24) against the increase in fuel prices.
