With growing anger at the alleged corruption and mismanagement by politicians in the country, a handwritten board was seen put up outside a house in Thanamalwila stating that all politicians are dishonest and they cannot enter this particular house.
People in the Kiul Ara Divisional Secretariat in Thanamalvila blamed the politicians for not fulfilling their promises, as a result of which their lands are now in danger. There are about eight parliamentarians representing the Monaragala District (government and opposition), and people allege that these politicians have not engaged in any development activities in their villages except selling their lands to businessmen from Colombo.
