Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Trust gradually eroded. The late Prof. Tissa Vitarana was truly a learned intellectual; a scientist; a thinker; a physician. He worked so that peace would prevail in the country and people would live with maturity and civility. I extend my condolences to his family.
¶ 02 Next, I must speak about the late Nandana Gunathilaka. He was an early member of the JVP and even contested the Presidential Election. It is notable that he was an egalitarian and exemplified dignified politics. While paying tribute to him, I extend my condolences to his family. Likewise, I conclude by appreciating the services of the late Hon. S.C. Muthukumarana, Hon. Chandradhasa Galappaththi, and Hon. Janaka Mahendra Adhikari, and by conveying my condolences to their families. Thank you.
