JVP General Secretary Tilvin Silva made a comment at the press conference held yesterday regarding Natasha Edrisuriya.
He pointed out that although this is not radical, some racists are once again stirring up religiosity through it.
He stated that this is not a new phenomenon in our country, and that our bankrupt government has always relied on communal and racial hatred as a last resort for survival.At the moment, we see the Ranil – Rajapakse government attempting to use this ploy as a last resort in order to cling to and gain political power. As a result, we implore the mases to be patient and alert in the face of such an incident. The Natasha incident is yet another racist act committed by these power hungry rotton politicians.
