• I am the chief organiser of the Dehiwala electorate
• Says he was not even aware of it

Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Dehiwala-Mt. Lavinia Organiser and former Mayor Danasiri Amaratunga accused the government leaders for not inviting him for the foundation stone laying ceremony for the new flyover at Kohuwala junction. 

 In a Facebook post, he said Highways Minister Johnston Fernando and a Minister from a foreign country attended the event and that he was not invited to the function despite being the Chief Organiser in that area.  

“I am the chief organiser of the Dehiwala electorate. But, no one invited me to the event. I was not even aware of it. We strove to form this government. It is regrettable that the high ranking leaders of the government have forgotten us now,” he said.  

He said in the post that he still has great respect and honour for Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa.
