JVP central committee member K.D. Lalkantha expressed these views about his wife during an event held in Maharagama on Sunday.

K.D. Lalkantha expressed the following views:

“My wife still wakes up at 4 in the morning and goes to work. My daughter is studying for her Advanced Levels and the cost for tuition is nearly 30,000 rupees a month. She is a teacher and her salary is not enough. I don’t get any money, so she bears this burden.  She tells me recently, ” I have been doing this full-time for 30 years; it is time that you also did something. This shows the society that we live in. Without finding a solution for these issues you can never fully provide justice to anyone here.”

K.D. Lalkantha made these comments at an event held to launch the novel Amma authored by Upul Shantha Sannasgala.
