Addressing a function in Homagama, he said politicians also indulge in such acts to demoralize the police.
“This is to distract the police operations . These elements have undertaken a contract . We encounter various challenges in the process including threats on personal safety . I , as the subject minister , am determined to forge ahead with these operations against all odds . The President gives me necessary courage for it. I request all concerned to boost the morale of the Police ,” he said .
He said the former President assigned this responsibility to him though he was unwilling to assume it first.
