Public servants constantly threatened by SLPP: Ranil

21 Jun 2020

Former Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe today alleged that most of the public servants are threatened by members of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP). Wickremesinghe was addressing the National Lawyers Association of the UNP at Sirikotha today (21). "Through the 19th Amendment we were able to established independent commissions such as the Election Commission, Public Service Commission and the National Police Commission." However currently, these commissions are threatened by the Rajapaksa government, Wickremesinghe added. He said Member of the Election Commission Prof. Ratnajeevan Hoole is constantly threatened and criticized by the government. "The Police Commission is fully Politicized, officers are transferred constantly. The Military is asked to look into the matters of the Commission." He said during the Yahapalana government public servants were respected irrespective of who they voted for. "During the local government elections, the SLPP won and most of the voter base was from the public sector. However we as a government did not treat them differently. " "During the 52-day Government many public servants lit crackers. We did not threaten them." He said many officers of the military have been appointed into state organisations and that public servants have not been given due recognition. "Democracy that was established during the Yahapalana government  is gradually deteriorating and public servants have no freedom," Wickremesinghe pointed out.
