Dear MP Harsha, Mind your own business. Look at your ministry, how much work have you done for the last 4 years? How much funds you have received and how much work have you done?
You all came o power to eradicated the wrong doings, instead what you have done? You all came to the power to punish Rajapakse regime who accused for taking country money, what you have done?
During he election time yet again, you all bringing up the same dust.
People are not idiots.
If Rajapakse is not the right person we will bring another which you have never seen in politics.
Country is not yours, its ours. We will build it without MPs like you.
only after nominations are signed that the country will know the true candidates, this is just a show at first the day of election has not been confirmed by the Elections commission, all these political parties are taking the voter on ride, I guess this is the only country in the world these things happen God bless Banana Republic.
The Chairman of the Elections Commission is a JOKER; he will sign anything, having scratched his beard.
Agree with you, CONCERNED, this country is indeed, a WONDERLAND.
