The Hon. (Dr.) Ramanathan Archchuna
Dr. Ramanathan Archchuna raised a point of order alleging that he had been prevented from entering the Leader of the Opposition’s office when seeking speaking time and said he could table a recording related to the matter. He objected to sitting with the Opposition group, describing the situation as unfair, and requested that he be given a separate chair in the middle of the Chamber.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of order.
¶ 02 Hon. Presiding Member, I am willing to table the recording where he asked me to come. In addition, now they have informed the Leader of the Opposition’s office not to allow me inside. I went to ask for time; the police sent me out. This is unfair. I do not like to sit in the Opposition, rather than sit with such people. Please give me a chair here in the middle; I will sit here. I am ashamed to sit with a group like this, with people who have no shame. Please give me a chair here.
