Minister of Regional Development Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka today said he could show quick results in apprehending wrong-doers if he is appointed as the minister of Law and order.

"I will show results in six months if I am given the portfolio of Law and Order" he told journalists.

Further, he said it is not advisable to appoint former President Mahinda Rajapaksa as the leader of Opposition.

"Country will go back to the era of depressing media rights if those who were rejected by the people are given an opportunity" he said.

Meanwhile, Deputy Minister Ranjan Ramanayake also said he too will work towards arresting wrong-doers quickly if he is at least appointed as the Deputy Minister of Law and Order. (Yohan Perera)

No thanks. We do not want haters to be given important portfolios. Your importance has expired on 19th may, 2009. As a politician, you are a zero. Sorry.

SF hates those who did the injustice to him. He does not hate you and me.Mahinda , Ranil and all of them, their importance has long been expired and they hate all of us.I think SF and Ranjan could do a good job and you and I don’t have to worry because we are not thieves.

That means minister will give orders to judges and magistrates to give judgements what the government wants. If that happens at the next general election unp won't win at least a dozen of electorates. People are not idiots like SF or Ranjan.

52 12

Izzy Sunday, 18 February 2018 08:17 PM

SF is going to so the job properly. If he is given the job all sri Lankans will get the gd news by april 10th. His position must be confirmed immediately and given a free hand. Ranjan is a gd pick for deputy. President must be decisive.

As usual UNP is disconnected with reality. They think that people voted against them because they didnt oppress the opposition when in reality people voted against them because people didn't feel anything moving forward in the country. Oppressing the opposition after an election defeat is the last thing this government should do

29 12

Ashkaf Sunday, 18 February 2018 09:03 PM

Right person Right time. if the government wants to re-gain its power back, give the ministry to him. he is only hope you all have. infact we all have. this is the only way to stop MR coming to power by 2020. MS

He is a very capable and a decorated general who won the war for the people of Srilanka but Rajapakshes have distorted the truth. Of course the Rajapakshes were there but they did not fight the war, they just gave him political support. He should be appointed law and order minister in order to keep the country stable. For the last three years country has been disrupted by protests and demonstrations.
