Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, during the previous government, certain racist politicians and appointed officials caused such incidents regarding nurses’ attire in one place. We have spoken with Hon. Minister Nalin Jayatissa and will provide an early solution. But note: our Government cannot be held responsible for misdeeds by officials appointed in the past. If they act wrongly now, submit evidence—we will act against them.
