Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of Order.
¶ 02 Please give me a minute, Sir. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the said Member referred to me by name. He has already made false statements about me in this Parliament. I was elected to this Parliament by contesting independently and with integrity, and I am a Member of the Constitutional Council. He did not vote for me. My politics is just and principled. Therefore, I request that you conduct an inquiry, ascertain the truth, and ensure justice. Thank you.
