¶ 01 Hon. Speaker, thank you. My name too was mentioned as owning a petrol shed. You also represent Polonnaruwa; you know whether I have a petrol shed or not. The people of Polonnaruwa know I do not. Such reports mislead the public, thinking we speak to defend personal sheds. Therefore, please correct the record. Thank you.
