The Hon. Rauff Hakeem, Attorney-at-Law
Hon. Rauff Hakeem said a June 24 letter from the District Secretary had caused public agitation and argued that key facts had been withheld from the Minister. He stated that the issue arose from the District Secretary’s decision and could not be resolved through District Secretaries alone, alleging partiality in their actions.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Very briefly. I thank the Hon. Minister. A letter sent by the District Secretary on June 24 caused great agitation. As Hon. Shanakiyan said, blaming officials is not ideal, but some matters were withheld in what was reported to you. The present problem arose from that District Secretary’s decision. Therefore, this cannot be resolved through District Secretaries alone; they acted with partiality. That is the issue.
