Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 He brought the Yahalakale Elders’ Home to Horana and developed it, and initiated the Galpatha “Sukhitha” Children’s Home and nurtured it. Thus, Hon. Indradasa Hettiarachchi rendered a great service to the Horana electorate, Raigam Korale, Kalutara District and the country, as a very humble, popular, people-friendly Member of Parliament—truly dedicated to social service and forever remembered by the people of Horana.
¶ 02 We express our condolences on his demise and pray for the attainment of Nibbana, and request that the sympathies of this Assembly be conveyed to his beloved children and relatives.
¶ 03 I also extend my respectful thanks to retired Colonel Dr. Wasantha Wijethilaka of Pokunuwita, our Pradeshiya Sabha Member; Mr. Ananda Jayawardena of Madurawala; and Mr. Tilakasiri Sinhabahu of Horana for assisting me in compiling these facts. Expressing my condolences on the demise of all these Hon. Members, I conclude my remarks. Thank you, Hon. Presiding Member.
