Congratulations Dinesh!
Congratulations hero.
You provided us peace in the country by losing your hands, legs, eyes and almost everything.
Now you are becoming heroes again by bringing medal to the country as well.
Sad to see politicians are still fighting to win the war.
This is how things are happening in SL.
