Money distributed to draw crowds to Kirillapona - Manusha

The deputy minister Manusha Nanayakkara speaking at a media conference held at the government news department auditorium on the 26th instant had this to say in regard to the

distribution of money among the party organizers to attract crowds to Kirillapona on the May Day  for the joint opposition May Day rally.

He had said that the former president is aware that by  distributing money presidential election could not be won. During the presidential  election campaign the then minister Basil Rajapaksa  had distributed money  amounting to rupees one lakh among the SLFP organizers to win votes.

Similarly Basil Rajapaksa is distributing money among the SLFP organizers in an attempt to attract supporters to the joint May Day rally to be held at Kirillapona on the  May Day.

Manusha Nanayakkara had also added that the people are intelligent enough not to accept money and attend to the joint May Day rally in Kirillapona but the SLFP's would flock to Galle for the SLFP May Day rally.
