Allocate money for safety of kids’ hearts – COC
After
the Yahapalana government allocated money for buy luxury vehicles for
ministers Citizens’ Organizations’ Collective called for a press
conference held at CSR on May 7, 2017 and urged government to give a
priority to allocate money for safety of kids’ hearts.
Left Centre Co-cordinator Chameera Perera said that Little Hearts Centre
needs 2000million rupees for put up Heart Centre at the Child care
Hospital in Colombo.
“Yahapalana government has been allocated 3360 million rupees for buy
seven luxury vehicles for ministers. It is not an urgent need. The
urgent need is build the Heart Centre for kids who have heart diseases.
Chamara Nakandala, convener of Parapuraka balaya said that government
does not have money to pay Rs. 15,000 recent flood victims of Kelaniya
and Kaduwela.
“As well as government failed to pay compensation for Aranayaka
landslide victims and bomb blast victims of Salawa. But they have money
to spend millions of rupees for buy luxury vehicles for ministers,” said
Nakandala.
Priyadharshani Ariyaratne and D. M. D. Abeyratne also spoke out at the press conference
