MR attends jinxed Kirilapone venue, a burial ground of the past for SL political leaders

(Lanka-e-News
-01.May.2016, 11.59PM) It is a matter for deep regret that the leaders
of the group of morons and minions who call themselves as ‘the joint
opposition’ are on this year’s May day leading the present Kurunegala
M.P. Mahinda Rajapakse to his political burial ground. This burial
ground is their May day rally venue at Kirilapone . Hereunder are the
cogent evidence in support of that :
1. In the year 1975, Late J.R. Jayawardena made arrangements to hold a
by election for Colombo South , after resigning his Parliamentary member
post. On 18 th July 1975 when the by election was held , J R
Jayawardena was the candidate.
The rival candidate was J.R.P . Sooriyaperuma the independent candidate
backed by the SLFP. When JR polled 36919 votes , Sooriyaperuma could
only poll 11,113 votes, whereby JR won with a majority of 25,806 votes.
Sooriyaperuma who was defeated at that election could never ever be
brought back into politics by the people.
Until Mahinda Rajapakse chose him via the National list at the last
election , Soriyaperuma was lost in the wilds politically for 35 long
years. Sooriyaperuma held his final election rally in 1975 at this same
venue, at Kirilapone.
2. The Eksath Lanka Janatha party that was launched by Rukman Senanayake
in 1989 could not politically survive for long. That short-lived
political party too held its final rally at this same venue at
Kirilapone. Soon after that rally , Rukman and his party disintegrated.
Dr. Gamini Wijesekera , the secretary of the party too died following a
bomb attack at Thotalanga during that period.
3. Late Lalith Athulathmudali who broke away from the UNP and formed the
Democratic United National Front under his leadership too held his
final rally at this same venue just before his death. He fell victim
while on stage to the gunfire of a cruel assassin on 23 rd April 1993.
Gamini Dissanayake who was a joint leader then of that party too died
due to a bomb attack during that period.
4. Late President Ranasinghe Premadasa prior to his meeting with his
fateful death at Armour street junction , also held his final rally at
the same venue at Kirilapone, where he exclaimed ‘ even if you
assassinate me , do not assassinate my character’ In the circumstances ,
it is not inappropriate to describe the Kirilipone venue as having been
a ‘burial ground’ for all the aforementioned political leaders.
History has proved time and again to political leaders of Sri Lanka that
holding rallies at Kirilapone is a bad omen. It is a pity Basil,
Dinesh, Weerawansa and Gammanpila the record breaking bankrupt politicos
presently of SL have led Mahinda Rajapakse not only surely but swiftly
to this Kirilapone venue - the political burial ground which has been
a jinx on political leaders . The intentions of these bankrupt
politicos notwithstanding , if they have any idea about ‘rest in peace’ ,
certainly they would not have chosen this venue .
Mahinda Rajapakse's appearance at the May day rally at Kirilapone carves
a short cut to his political decline. Mark our words - Lanka e news
records herein at 11.59 p.m. sharp on 01st May 2016 , the time when
ghosts climb trees, his presence will be tantamount to Mahinda
Rajapakse wrapping himself in the shroud of ‘political death.’
