The altercation between the Telephone party’s future defense purohita and the young gabby one from Badulla that took place at the meeting held at the conclusion of the party’s protest march the other day has become a leading talking point these days. 

The cause for the slanging match is said to be the deletion of the future purohita’s name from the list of speakers at the meeting and the defense purohita to- be had assumed that the gabby young one from Badulla had done it. But actually it had been done by another party high-up, they say.   The defense purohita to-be who considers himself as the second in command in the Telephone party had felt affronted when he found that his name was not down on the list of speakers at the meeting, they say.
