Now we some class in the candidates. No room should be given to rouges, casino barons, drug dealers and people who use filth.

Rukman was in Dedigama, and Ruwanwella electoral seats as well. Time to time he is appearing to politics and vanished again for few years. Deraniyagala is under Mr. Mithrapala, and His sons, hands. Both are gentlemen and no crime or corruption charges or stories against them. The whole Kegalle district knows, who sponsored the killers in Deraniyagala..

A great man, just what our country needs at a time like this. Hope he is successful and climbs further up the ranks in the UNP party and government.
