The Lion of Akuregoda…!

-Written by X

(Lanka-e-News -29.Dec.2024, 7.45 PM)  This article is crafted with precision, avoiding even the faintest trace of insult, defamation, malice, or derogatory language. Standing firmly on this conviction, it is written in a manner that ensures no reader will find even a speck of dust, let alone mud, on its narrative.

On the Lanka E-News media platform, where words are carefully wielded with restraint, this piece on a military appointment may well be the first and last of its kind written by the author. It must be stated that this narrative is not a reflection of the writer’s personal voice but rather the aura of the subject in question. It neither seeks to elevate anyone nor to belittle anyone else.

In the political arena, where individual and party victories come at the cost of manipulation and deceit, voters from past to present have consistently been the losers. Similarly, in recent times, some within the Sri Lanka Army, basking in the glow of their benefactors, have gone to great lengths to position themselves as worthy of leading the institution. The only activities they seem unwilling to engage in are protests and hunger strikes, often the chosen tools of trade unions.

The dignity of the proud military has been tarnished, sold cheap by certain social media activists, and its image sullied by collective corruption. This unfortunate scenario saw bids placed for the post of Army Commander. Those vying for the position were, by and large, silent traditional figures, occasionally glimpsed as outsiders to this circus of influence.

Within this silence lies a discipline and grandeur that deserves timely recognition. We cannot be hypocritical in failing to value it. Like poppy flowers blooming on scarred earth enriched by the fallen rain, the aspirations sparked by this individual carry the weight of hope for the military. His resolute demeanor is akin to a stone statue standing firm amidst the false idols around him, bringing a refreshing sense of possibility to the Sri Lanka Army.

Just as a virgin among streetwalkers is a blessing rather than a myth, his silence is a quiet strength that breaks through the noise. However, as to who he truly is, I conclude this note without providing further details.
