“Did Prabha Ganesan Just Strike Gold? 15 Billion Rupees Allegedly from Lyca Mobile Sparks Drama!”

-By A Staff Writer

(Lanka-e-News -05.Nov.2024, 9.10 pm) Just when you thought Sri Lankan politics couldn’t get more dramatic, Mohan Perera has thrown a fresh curveball. This time, he’s pointing fingers at Prabha Ganesan, brother of Mano Ganesan, the leader of the Democratic National Alliance (DNA). The accusation? A whopping 15 billion rupees, allegedly gifted by none other than the UK-based Lyca Mobile owner, aimed at, of all things, stirring up the upcoming parliamentary election.

Sri Lankan politics often feels like an intricate soap opera, with twists and turns we’d never see coming. So here we are, left to ask ourselves: did Prabha Ganesan just receive a “generous donation” of 15 billion rupees to shake up the political scene, or is this just another episode of high-stakes political theater?

Federalism or Confusion? The Three Party Constitutions Mystery

Mohan Perera’s accusations don’t stop at cash flow. He’s also suggested that the DNA operates with not one, not two, but three different party constitutions. Why three? Apparently, each constitution endorses federalism—a hot-button issue in a country fiercely protective of its unitary status.

In Perera’s view, the DNA’s approach is enough to make any nationalist raise an eyebrow. Federalism in Sri Lanka has always been a sensitive topic, and Perera warns that this agenda could lead to questioning the “unilateralism” of the nation. It’s as if DNA has whipped out a three-pronged pitchfork, ready to poke holes in the country’s unity. Or, as Mohan Perera might put it, “Federalism is the DNA’s middle name.”

Lyca Mobile: More Than Just Data Plans?

Now, let’s talk about the alleged 15-billion-rupee bombshell. According to Perera, Lyca Mobile, that friendly international telecom provider known for keeping expats connected, isn’t just selling SIM cards these days—it’s supposedly meddling in Sri Lankan politics!

Lyca Mobile has allegedly taken it upon itself to fuel not just the DNA but also Ranjan Ramanayake, our beloved, outspoken former MP. Why would a telecom giant based in the UK have such a keen interest in shaping Sri Lanka’s elections? According to Perera, Lyca is on a secret mission to back “undemocratic” parties, all with the goal of sabotaging the NPP (National People’s Power) wave sweeping the nation. Who knew data plans and democracy could make such an odd couple?

The Big Question: Who’s Really Funding Whom?

For voters, Mohan Perera’s allegations have stirred up more confusion than confidence. Who exactly is pulling the strings behind these political alliances? And what’s Lyca Mobile’s true motive? Is it a case of the mysterious “foreign influence” many politicians love to warn about, or is this just a conspiracy theory brewed up to ruffle feathers?

Perera insists the Electoral Commission should investigate these mysterious cash flows. He’s calling for transparency, though one might wonder if transparency in politics is as rare as a unicorn sighting. If UK-based funds are indeed being channeled into Sri Lankan politics, what does that mean for the average voter, already trying to figure out the difference between promises and performances?

The Ranjan Ramanayake Saga Continues

Just when we thought we’d heard it all, Ranjan Ramanayake enters the scene. Perera claims that Ramanayake, allegedly funded by Lyca Mobile, may not be as squeaky clean as he appears. Even though the Supreme Court petition questioning Ramanayake’s eligibility was recently withdrawn, Perera hints that another one might just pop up.

One wonders if Sri Lanka’s political scene is, in fact, a reality show, where plotlines and rivalries play out in weekly episodes. First, we have the accusation of foreign funding, then a constitutional conspiracy, and now the potential for another courtroom drama featuring none other than Ranjan himself.

The Plot Thickens, but Will It Stick?

At the end of the day, Perera’s accusations may or may not hold water. Prabha Ganesan, Mano Ganesan, Lyca Mobile, and Ranjan Ramanayake make an interesting cast of characters, each bringing their own intrigue to the plot. But without solid evidence, it’s all just political theater, complete with dramatic accusations, plot twists, and cliffhangers.

Whether Prabha Ganesan is actually rolling in Lyca Mobile cash, and whether or not the DNA has a triple-federalist agenda, is anyone’s guess. What we do know is that this storyline has managed to capture the attention of a nation known for its love of political intrigue. And if Mohan Perera’s aim was to keep us talking, well, mission accomplished.

Stay tuned, Sri Lanka. If politics here has taught us anything, it’s that there’s always another twist around the corner.
