Rajabdeen Resigns as SLMC National Organiser & Water Board VC

The former SLMC Colombo District MP was appointed as the Vice Chairman of the National Water Supply and Drainage Board in March 2015.

Recently   Rajabdeen said   to have made certain comments on Facebook criticizing the people of the Eastern Province. In a Facebook post, he had accused the people of the Eastern Province of being “opportunists” and that they are begging for jobs with politic al clouts. If a man is qualified why do you need politics?  he had questioned.

Leader of the Srilanka Muslim Congress Rauf Hakeem had reportedly summoned him and asked an explanation. Followed by this development, Rajabdeen has resigned from his posts as National Organiser of the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) and Vice Chairman of the Water Board. Rajabdeen  had tendered his resignation when he met with party leader Minister Rauff Hakeem this morning (24), SLMC Deputy General Secretary Nizam Kariyapper said.
