The Hon. Chamara Sampath Dasanayake
Chamara Sampath Dasanayake raised concerns about governance in the Province, alleging that the Governor’s Office is exercising political control through two seconded schoolteachers who are involved in arbitrary transfers of teachers and officers. He asked that this situation be investigated, noting that it is not occurring in other Provinces. He also questioned a graduate registration programme that is creating expectations of employment and sought clarification on the matter.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Mr. Speaker, without a maximum, you could appoint even twenty—but that is not a justification. Also, the Governor’s Office is effectively running the Province, with two schoolteachers seconded acting as de facto political managers—transferring teachers and officers arbitrarily. This is not happening in other Provinces. Please look into this. Further, there is a graduate registration drive promising jobs—people have expectations. I ask about that too.
