Ranjan who insults government officers ... worse than Mervin -- Mahinda says

The incident where Deputy Minister Ranjan Ramanayaka has reprimanded the Divulapitiya Divisional Secretary a few days ago has now gone a long way. The President's attention too has been focused on this matter and the two of them who were involved in this are to be summoned to President's House where the issue is to be

settled, reports say.

In the meantime the former President who was present at a ceremony at a vihara in Kesbewa on addressing the media has made comments about the incident as follows: "We totally oppose Ranjan's words. I don't think divisional secretaries would keep quiet. No politician has the right to insult government officers. When you go to see ... he's worse than Mervin Silva no".
