North Central Provincial Council Minister’s Double Game
The SLFP held May Day rally and meeting at Galle under the Chairmanship of SLFP leader , President Maithreepala Sirisena.Splinter group of the SLFP along with few coalition partners held their May Day rally and meeting at Kirulapone.
While most of the SLFP politicians participated in Galle May Day rally, a few took the risk of attending the May Day meeting held under the leadership of Mahinda Rajapakshe. Those who violated SLFP Central Committee decision that they should attend Galle Rally and meeting will be subject to disciplinary action.
To circumvent this decision, North Central Provincial Council Irrigation Minister, H.D.Semasinga adapted the modus operandi of attending both meetings at Galle and Kirulapone. Accordingly , he first attended the May Day rally at Galle and showed his face to Maithree. Therafter he proceeded to Kirulapone and showed his face to Mahinda. He proved to be the typical srilankan politician.
