Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, my first supplementary question is this: It is supposed to be a replica of a Shakya settlement, but anyone who goes there says it looks like a children's theme-park jungle. Under what objective did the then administrators proceed to build it in that manner?
