(Lanka-e-News -31.Dec.2016, 2.40PM) It is a well and widely known fact that racist and infamous Galagoda Aththe Gnanassara the robed monk is day in and day out making vitriolic and inflammatory speeches against the Muslims while it is the duty of a responsible government, specially one which preaches good governance to ensure action is taken against such conduct , before it leads to a national holocaust . Yet , to the consternation of all peace loving and law abiding people of the country , a video tape of his hate speech had been released to the public by the media unit itself of the president of the country. Mujubur Rahman M.P. has therefore made a written request to the president to conduct an investigation into this .A copy of the letter sent by the M.P. is appended …

The President
His Excellency President Maithripala Sirisena
Presidential secretariat
Colombo 01
His Excellency the President ,
Regarding actions of the presidential media unit disseminating bogus views of racists among people
During the discussions held on 2016-12-22 at the presidential secretariat regarding the conservation of archeological and historic sites , the secretary of Bodhu Bala Sena (BBS), Galagoda Aththe Gnanassara Thera made many baseless and false utterances laden with hate against the Muslims and the teachings of Islam in front of no less a person than yourself.
Gnanassara Thera who is conducting a most venomous and vicious hate campaign specially directed against the minority Muslim community , and with a vengeful motive to alienate the nation from the Muslim community, made a most deadly and grave accusation during the discussions that the religion of Islam is preaching to the Muslims to destroy the historic sites of archeological value in this country .
Mind you those bogus, baseless, stupid and vicious accusations were hurled right before you. And now, that video footage of that hate and most vitriolic provocative speech of Ganassara Thera which could inflame the feelings of the people against a minority living in this country has been distributed among all the media divisions by now by the presidential media under you.
While your Excellency is moving heaven and earth , and day in and day out seeking to establish peaceful and harmonious co existence among the races of this country through the government of good governance , the distribution of these mischief creating and vitriolic hate speeches by your own media which is engaging in giving publicity to it is unacceptable , and is only widening further the gaps existing among the races. Hence , it may be said , this irresponsible action of the presidential media unit is so serious and grave that it is running counter to your very aspirations and expectations , whereby it can give a crushing blow to your very hopes .
In the circumstances , it must have become crystal clear that the video tapes distributed by the presidential media unit is aimed at stoking and kindling destructive racism once again. Therefore I humbly request your Excellency to duly institute an investigation into this .
Thanking you
Mujibur Rahman
Colombo District UNP M.P.
