Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of Order.

¶ 02 We were sent to this House by the people to serve the country and our constituents. In Puttalam, all communities voted for us to bring development. We requested the Hon. President and the Hon. Minister to upgrade the Puttalam Hospital. An Hon. Member mentioned my name here.

¶ 03 We did not come to this House to campaign for votes or to frighten anyone. Outside, while talking, he came to us and asked, “How did I give?” He says the Minister lied. Even if the questions were correct, one should not say lies were told in the House. We did not come here to threaten anyone. He said we were speaking for votes; that is false. We asked for the hospital to be upgraded. The President and the Minister have assured it. Insha Allah, we will get it done. We did not come here to frighten anyone; nor do we need to.
