Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa yesterday said that the socialist leaders who are leading a luxurious life don’t want the oppressed to rise. He was speaking at the presentation of a bus for Urubokka National School in Urubokka under the SJB’s Sakwala programme.
When the President-led government of the country does nothing for the education and health of the country, the Samagi Jana Balavegaya contacted the wealthy and provided buses, computers and e-classrooms for schools, medicine for the hospitals.
He said that the socialist parties of the country who claim to stand for the poor ask us whether bus drivers can become the president of the country. Premadasa said they collected million of rupees using the youths in the country, built luxurious party offices and enjoyed themselves.
“They are jealous of the programme of providing buses to schools.They are jealous that if schoolchildren get some strength through the relief given to the schools in the remote areas,” he said.
