Disgusted Deputy Decried Before the Head
This is regarding a deputy started his carrier in silver screen and later entered the political arena.
In the recent mini Cabinet reshuffle of Deputies and State ones, this one too got a new portfolio with an additional subject relevant to the past of the hill country capital, Kandy.
When he appeared before the head to receive the appointment, he said thus:
“Sir, my new job is going to be distributing crutches and wheelchairs to the disabled. People, no doubt, elected me with a massive vote expecting me to do a more productive job for them. I shall be grateful to you if you will please give me a subject like Justice or one of the subjects coming under you.”
The head who patiently listen to the story of the unhappy deputy consoled him saying: “I can understand how you feel. But I have to take a decision in consultation with your leader on his return to the country.”
