The Hon. G.G. Ponnambalam
Hon. G.G. Ponnambalam questioned the basis for the Minister’s claim that education in the North had improved over the past seven months and requested supporting evidence. He also alleged that the military presence in the North and East was a main cause of the drug problem and asked when it would be removed.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Minister, two questions. First, you said the North’s education has slightly improved over the last seven months. On what basis do you say that? Provide evidence. Second, you know as well as I do that the military in the North and East is the main cause of the drug problem.
