The Hon. Mujibur Rahuman
Mujibur Rahuman criticized the Leader of the House for opening the debate with attacks on the Opposition and the Opposition Leader. He argued that government members who had previously supported the Rajapaksas and participated in 2022 protests near Parliament were not in a position to lecture the Opposition on parliamentary traditions or norms.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Speaker, the Leader of the House began the debate by attacking the Opposition and the Opposition Leader. He accuses us while those on the Government front rows once voted for the Rajapaksas. Do not lecture us now about parliamentary traditions; in 2022 you rallied people at the Parliament junction. Do not now preach about safeguarding parliamentary norms.
