MP Udaya Gammanpila told Parliament yesterday that JVP’s Politburo member K. D. Lalkantha has publicly declared that the JVP has planned to take over the Parliament of Sri Lanka and therefore he should be immediately arrested under the criminal law and the law should be enforced against him. MP Udaya Gammanpila mentioned this while joining the adjournment debate on the Mid-Year Fiscal Position Report – 2024.
Lalkantha has said that his party has told the people to come to the Parliament. But it was not possible to do that because some of the people who were in the Aragalaya just left the scene.
If the JVP fighters were able to take over the Parliament then, the same situation in Bangladesh today would have arisen in Sri Lanka too. Bangladesh is still on fire. As suggested by Lal Kantha, the cases are being heard not in courts but on roads today in Bangladesh.
People are being killed after hearing cases on roads. Today, Bangladesh has turned into an anarchy and the country is piled up with mountains of corpses. If that happend to the Sri Lankan Parliament that day, the same situation would have arisen in Sri Lanka today.
If there is no deal with Anura, the law should be implemented now. Attempting to commit a crime is also a crime. It is said that they were ready to take over the Parliament and prepared to wreak havoc. Unlike the others, Lal is an honest man and tells the truth. The government should now arrest Lal Kanta in this regard.
