Nobel prize or Marbles prize for Maithri..? True background of this false portrayal…

(Lanka-e-News -01.Dec.2015, 11.45PM) The UNP and the SLFP which formed the United government has on its behalf proposed Maithripala Sirisena for the Nobel peace prize, Minister John Amaratunge revealed in parliament , and the pro Maithri group responded to it most enthusiastically.

It is a well and widely known fact that  Maithripala Sirisena is heading a united government after calling back the very corrupt and criminal individuals who were defeated by the people, and granting ministerial portfolios. Hence , it is being widely questioned whether the  committee that is selecting the Nobel prize winners are unhinged to pick such a leader for the Nobel prize. When it was probed further, it was discovered that following the exposures by the media websites pertaining to Maithripala Sirisena , his image is on a steep decline  , and in order to refurbish this tarnished image , the Maithripala group had created this myth.

The lid on the myth was blown high when it was revealed that , though the  Nobel prize winner is made known , the names of the proposers are not made known by the committee that is granting  this award until 50 years have elapsed , and this  was officially confirmed by the committee. 

It is a pity the group that is seeking desperately to boost the image of Maithripala Sirisena, in their abysmal ignorance must be assuming, like in the awards ceremonies of the Film Industry in which  the names and addresses of the proposers are mentioned before the winner is announced , when awarding  the Nobel prize too the names of the proposers are announced. Unfortunately to their consternation  that does not take place 

After the Nobel peace award was won by Malala in 2014 ,  the nominations for Nobel peace prize for 2015 was concluded on 1 st February 2015. 273 names of individuals and organizations have been proposed this year . Of them , 68 are organizations and 205 are individuals.

Only those with one of  the qualifications mentioned hereunder can propose an individual or oganization for the Nobel peace prize. He must be...
1. Members of national assemblies and governments of states
2. Members of international courts
3.    University rectors; professors of social sciences, history, philosophy, law and theology; directors of peace research institutes and foreign policy institutes
4.    Persons who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
5. Board members of organizations that have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
6. Active and former members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee; (proposals by members of the Committee to be submitted no later than at the first meeting of the Committee after February 1)
7.     Former advisers to the Norwegian Nobel Committee

A member of parliament of SL could have forwarded the nomination before  1 st February on behalf of  president Maithripala Sirisena with the request to grant a Nobel peace prize to Maithri too , who won elections on 8 th January 2015 . But making announcements and issuing statements  that just because a name has been proposed it constitutes  a nomination for Nobel peace prize is most stupid and condemnable.

According to the diary of Nobel peace prize committee, the selection of the individual who  receives the majority of votes is decided  during the period between  October and  10 th December , and in the first week of December it is announced.  The winner of this award is given away the prize at the ceremony in Oslo on December 10 th. The winner gets a medal ,Diploma certificate and cash prizes. 

However , the names and addresses of the proposers and the number of votes the nominee received are made known only after 50 years. Until then it is a secret.

If John Amaratunge has forwarded an application on behalf of Maithripala Sirisena , whether he would win the award can only be known in the first week of December, and under no circumstances can that be known  now. Therefore the fate of  Maithripala’s application can only be known after 50 years ! At that time Maithripala will not be among the living . John Amaratunge will not be among the living , and perhaps the reader of this article too will not be living.

Hence , if by any chance Maithripala is to receive the Nobel peace prize for establishing a united government , then prizes must be awarded even to those corrupt scoundrels who were given  ministerial portfolios on behalf of the United government by Maithripala , but so far a Nobel prize for such actions has still not been found by the Nobel peace prize committee. The people of SL should not therefore delay any more to confer a special ignoble title on John Baas who is duping and lying to them.
