Minister of Housing and Samurdhi Sajith Premadasa at a meeting to ensure victory for the UNP in Ranminitenna, Tissamaharama announced his plan for serving the people without corruption.

The minister went on to state that when ports were built, the chena farmer was rendered helpless, houses were never built for the poor, and elephant herds were at places where the airport was built. He said these elephants now go in to the villages and cause damage, either destroying a house or killing people.

He further added that these issues were never looked in to and they could not see them when making decision by the pool at Temple Trees. He said political leaders cannot make arbitrary decisions since they need to provide for the people what they ask. He said today his  plan is to make the people’s dream a reality and make sure that the people survive.
