Is Chief Minister of NPC- C.V.Wigneswaran preparing the ground for another Racial Riot, to call for foreign intervention?

Sri Lanka Yahapalanaya Government is doing every thing the way USA and the West want it to do. And our President Maithripala Sirisena is naïve to believe that his being praised by the West, shaking hands with Western Leaders or posing for photographs with the President Barrack Obama and the American First Lady is a mark of approval of Yahapalanaya Government by the Western Countries.
It may be so as there is no country in the world so shamelessly subjugating itself to the Western Political Leaders. There is also no respectable country in the world which writes the Constitution of the country with the minority partnership. There is no country in the world which does everything to reconcile with the Tamil Community which contribute nothing for the protection, security or welfare of the country
The Tamils in Sri Lanka do not want to integrate into the Sri Lankan Society. They want to be separate from the rest of the people of Sri Lanka. The political and social problems Sri Lanka is faced with today is this refusal of the Tamils to be a part of the larger community of Sri Lankans. Tamils do not want reconciliation , they want equal rights with the Sinhala and a separate Tamil Eelam in the North and East. Why cannot the Yahapalanaya crowd cannot understand it ?
The Tamils do not want to be second class Citizens-as they say, but want equal rights with the Sinhala people of the country. But this Tamil Community seeking equal rights with the Sri Lanka has not contributed positively in any way for its protection and development. They came to Sri Lanka as plunderers, marauders and invaders and even today remain separately taking the best of what they can from Sri Lanka, always demanding more and giving nothing in return for its welfare or security (except a handful of them).
A Nation is identified by its culture. The culture is invariably related to the religion or the belief system of that nation. There are conquests, incursions or immigration into a nation state which introduces other cultures and belief system by force in case of conquests, but the original culture of the nation state by which it is recognised remains intact, even with the introduction of new cultures into its. However, these other cultures or belief systems introduced into the nation state cannot remain completely isolated without being influenced by certain aspects of other cultures and religions that have come into its midst.
However the main culture and the belief system of that nation state will remain protected, accepted as its identifying culture. That would be its primary identity with other culture coexisting without putting into danger the original culture with which the nation State is identified. This is what happens with great nations of the world having a history of more than thousand or more years.
Applying this to Sri Lanka it should be correctly identified as a Sinhala Buddhist nation. The other cultures in the country like Christianity of the Western Culture which was forced into it, Hindu and Islamic cultures came into the country through incursions, and immigration. But all these cultures coexist within the Sinhala Buddhist Culture. The constitution accepts these cultures foreign to Sri Lanka ,laying down the methodology of their functioning. But the constitution cannot be adjusted to enable reconciliation with communities, because it is the communities that should adopt and accept the Constitution of the Nation State.
If that is how it is, then it could be the Sabyathva Rajya, recently stated by Gunadasa Amarasekara in his new book.
Democracy is of course a foreign invention introduced to our country by the British. Once it has been accepted into the political system democracy has to be correctly understood. Once accepted and introduced it covers all political activities of the Nation State composed of the communities that make up the Nation with its original people of the culture with which Sri Lanka is identified.
But democracy cannot be a reason to change the Constitution to give special privileges to minority communities. That would be a mutilation of democracy. The Democratic system is to accept the voice of the majority, not to accept views and demands of the minority to put in danger the accepted majority point of view, if not it would be anarchy. Even in an election it is the one who gets the majority(highest) number of votes that wins the election.
But it is an aberration of this concept to accept the proposal suggested by TNA Parliamentarian Sumanthiran in a recent Derana TV Programme Aluth Paralimenthuvak, that a new constitution should be written removing the 9th Article with protects Buddhism as the foremost religion as it provides a special privilege to the Sinhala Community, which is denied to other communities.
He argues that the Tamils had not been given their rightful place since independence, being treated as second class citizens. What else are they as pointed out earlier, they are a minority Community, but not second class citizens as they say.
TNA MP Sumanthiran further denies Mahavansa as a historical record of the Sinhala (which was agreed by a man who calls himself a specialist in History of Sri Lanka-a professor of history Nirmal Ranjith Dewasiri, who said that Mahavansa as a historical record is controversial. These are University Professors who have passed their exams on book knowledge unable to think beyond what they have learnt from books written by western writers. That is one reason why there should be a radical change in the university education system in Sri Lanka).
According to C.V.Wignesvaran the Chief Minister of the Northern Provincial Council, North and East should be exclusively Tamil Provinces and the new Constitution should be a Federal constitution in which the rights of the Tamil people are expressly stated. That would be a far cry from Sabyathva Rajya- or democracy.
Strangely the Yahapalana leadership seems not averse to these suggestions of the TNA. Undoubtedly the Yahapalanaya Goverrnment has an agreement with the TNA to accept their version of democracy.
These TNA MPs and Wignesvaren led Tamils who are not satisfied being a minority but would like to have equal rights with the Sinhala Buddhists should know a little more of the place the Sinhala Buddhists have in Sri Lanka since the inception of the Sinhala Buddhist culture.
The Sinhala became a Buddhist nations after the arrival of Venerable Arahath Mahinda Maha thero . Then there were no Tamils or Muslims. The King Devenampiatissa offered whole of Sri Lanka to Buddha sasana in the Presence of the venerable Arahath Mahinda Maha thero. Since then the Sinhala people protected this land from foreign invaders, giving their life and blood in the defence of Sri Lanka their country. Tamils came as invaders, plunderers, marauders. They were chased away by the valiant Sinhala Buddhists.
However, later on a Cholan King Elara set up a kingdom in Anuradhapura from 202 BC to 161 BC. He reined for a long time as he had accepted to rein over the people in a way appropriate to the teachings of the Buddha. He had developed compassion towards those he ruled extending the same compassion even to animals.
The Northern Province Chief Minister Wigneswaran organised a well attended demonstration in Jaffna against settlement of Sinhala people in North and East. The report announcing the demonstration read, Northern Province Chief Minister C.V.Wigneswarana has urged Tamil people to participate in a demonstration scheduled in Jaffna tomorrow, to oppose the systematic settlement of Sinhalese people in the Tamil dominated regions and the erection of Buddhist statues in an area devoid of Buddhist Devotees.
Didn’t this stupid man Wigneswaran a one time Judge think for a moment that these demonstrations, may be a deliberate triggering off of racial riots? The Sinhala in the South not taking these demonstrations lightly may want to rise against the Tamils reawakening hatred that compelled riots of the past.
The Yahapalanaya lulled into a false sense of security removing Army Camps in the north and east, distributing lands in the north back to the Tamils hopes that it may help to reconcile with the Tamils.
The President Sirisena and Prime Minister Ranil Wickramasinghe and the Yahapalanaya Government refuse to understand the reality that the Tamils refuse reconciliation, because the Tamils want a Tamil Eelam- Tamil only provinces in the North and East and nothing less. That is why they do not want Sinhala settled in the North and East and destroy Buddhist statues. Tamils are provoking the Sinhala Buddhists in the south for a backlash, with another racial riot.
If there were to be a back lash, it would help the Tamil politicians in the North and the East to call for foreign intervention. There are lot of trigger-happy Americans ready to descend at the first call. Amnesty International , Human Rights Watch which did not speak a word when Libya, Iraq or Syria were bombed to heaps of rubble, will not fail to call for the intervention of International community in Sri Lanka.
This is where the Yahapalanaya Government has brought Sri Lanka. The so called Western friends of Maithripala Sirisena who heaped him with commendations and appreciation will not fail to intervene to defend the Tamils. They are already demanding the North and East be free of Army Camps.
In the mean time the election commissioner too is being very helpful( to Yahapalanaya), in case of another election that the Tamil votes will increase in the North and east. He says he will allow voting rights to the Tamils still remaining in refugee camps. In the mean time the number of returnees from refugee camps in India has increased. They will also be given their voting rights. All in all the Tamil votes to the Yahapalanaya Government may ensure their re election. It was the Tamil and Muslim votes that allowed Maithripala Sirisena an edge over the other Presidential Candidate Mahinda Rajapakse on the 8th January,2015.
If Sri Lanka is to be saved from falling into an unrecoverable abyss, the Sinhala Buddhists have to unite as one behind a leader who can save Sri Lankafrom looming disaster, and from the grip of unhelpful friends and released to real friends who will help develop Sri Lanka and protect it from political vultures of the West.
It is time that the Yahapalanaya Government wakeup from their lull into false sense of security and arrest the NPC Chief Minister Wigneswaran for inciting people to racial disharmony and riots. Yahapalanaya Government should also stop further distribution of land in the North and East to Tamils and strengthen Security. They should also arrest all those who were responsible for the destruction of Buddha Statues in the North, and threaten the Sinhala people already settled in the area.

Bring it on Wiggie, then we can once and for all finish off those racist,selfish parasites and terrorists. Then only all the others including decent Tamils can live peacefully in an unitary Sri Lanka.
September 26th, 2016 at 8:58 pm
The main barrier to unifying Sri Lankan people now is this RECONCILIATION CRAP!
In no other part of the world are the most communal, racist and muderous war mongers defeated in battle despite the greatest efforts have been whitewashed and foisted on the people as innocent victims with whom we should reconciliate.
When the Nazis were defeated, they were labelled as vicious murders who engaged in mass genocide …. and were
ostracised and banned from holding any position of power. Even today, the United States will not allow any person who was a Nazi into the country. Those who have sneaked into the country falsifying their immigration documents are immediately stripped of citizenship and are deported to their country of origin.
In short, THERE IS NO RECONCILIATION WITH NAZIS.
Yet, in Sri Lanka, we are continually urged not only to RECONCILE with our Sri Lanka Nazis aka Tamil Eelamists but also to EMPOWER them so they can REVIVE that Racist Communal ideology!
The net result of all the unending stream of Western backers of Tamil Eelamist Nazism visiting Sri Lanka has been to encourage them to revive their goals utterly crushed on May 18, 2009 delivering the Sri Lankan nation from the jaws of death and destruction!
Under Wigneswaran’s urging the Tamil Tiger Dream is rising again, aided and abetted by the Western bunglers who never helped us to rescue our.motherland from the grip of terrorism. They presided over the slide of Sri Lanka into the abyss of disintegration and chaos and pontificate to us that the Tigers could never be defeated. Thwiy were UTTERLY WRONG, and have been wrong all over the globe where they have reduced once stable Middle Eastern countries into failed states and, handing them over to the ISIS and Al-Quaida, and depopulation these countries by an exodus of more than half their people into Europe as unselcome illegal refugees.
This is what these self-styled pontificating pundits of the West have in store for Sri Lanka’s Buddhist, unless we gird up our loins, and
Oust this puppet Yamapalana government,
REPEAL the 13A imposed on Sri Lanka by India,
Dissolve the provincial councils and replace them with disctricts governed by APPOINTED District Governors,
End the ETCA negotiations, and halt the ongoing absorption of Sri Lanka’s economy and culture by India,
Arrest and prosecute all TRAITORS like Wigneswaran who have engaged in anti-national activities in the past,
Eject the NGOs and foreign missionaries who have again flooded into Sri Lanka,
Restore the bases of the Sri Lanka defence forces to the North and East and their hard won position in our society as honored defenders of the nation and its people,
Acquire any and all land necessary to defend and control the former war zones, and
Initiate a policy that ALL LAND IN Sri Lanka belongs to ALL of its people equally without any areas reserved for any particular community. NO BANTUSTANS in Sri Lanka … EVER!
Rise up O Sinhalayeni! Your motherland needs your help NOW!

Pigneshwaran managed to get to one of the top posts in so called nasty Sri Lanka. Being a traitor cancer, he is still not
happy. The problem these traitors have is they don’t have their own country. Until that the traitors won’t be
happy. Don’t forget they still want Colombo for themselves as well. That’s why they are connecting jaffna
along the coastal lines with the kallathonis who settled down along the coastal belt during the 60s.
Traitor
cancer is never grateful, never happy, never loyal, can never have enough. So what do you expect from them?
Traitors know the current YAMA PALLAN headed by traitor chief die hard catholic token Buddhist pol pot ponil
wickramaSinhalakiller, don’t give a toss about Sri Lanka, the Sinhalese or Buddhism. Time is rife. The traitor
cancer knows it.

But this Tamil Community seeking equal rights with the Sri Lanka has not contributed positively in any way for its protection and development. – so you agreed with our PM sorry CM Viggie ,We-Ilankai Thamil do not get equal right in Mother lanka but I always wonder why Our Colombo 7 Judge talking Tamil racism waster than our Thesiya thalaivar VP.
Well done CM you are doing great job for your Indian(RAW) master .

ALL LAND IN Sri Lanka belongs to ALL of its people equally without any areas reserved for any particular community- Rise up O Sinhalayeni! Your motherland needs your help NOW!- contradicting statement

The 13-A is the biggest obstacle to racial harmony in Lanka.
It is a ‘dead on arrival’ piece of ILLEGAL legislation imposed on Lanka by INDIA.
Eelam is an idea stemming from Tamil Leaders Separatism in the 1930’s. Vadukoddai Resolution of 1976 – Eelam through Violence, led to the formation of the nascent LTTE, later trained in INDIA to be a terrorist outfit that killed thousands of innocent people (mainly Sinhala/Buddhists & poor sector Tamils), over a period of nearly 30 yrs.
Looks as though the Tamil leaders want ANOTHER 1983 type Riot to consolidate Eelam ?? Don’t fall for it !
The ‘divide & rule’ is being implemented on a daily basis, both Sinhala vs Tamil people as well Sinhala vs Sinhala people.
It is Sinhala versus Anyone that is being sought by Eelam formers !!
Yahap govt is being forced to follow the Law of the Land and arrest and charge all Northern leaders who make trouble for all of Lanka.
Any future govt of Lanka will be forced to remove the 13-A.
Sri Lanka has no solution to INDIA’s Tamil Nadu Caste/poverty problelms !
Neither can Lanka solve the problems of the west !
September 27th, 2016 at 4:31 pm
Meanwhile,
India wants to create facts on the ground for India by buying up Sri Lanka Lock, Stock and Barrel!
India is not far-off China, but a near and persistent existential threat to Sri Lanka as a sovereign nation!
LESS India invests in Sri Lanka, and BUTTS OUT of Sri Lanka completely, the better it will be for Sri Lanka!
The BANE of Sri Lanka’s existence is INTERFERENCE by India in our internal matters!

India to invest $2 billion in Sri Lanka in next four years – Sitharaman
Tue, Sep 27, 2016, 10:00 pm SL Time, ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
Sept 27 (Reuters) India will invest up to $2 billion in Sri Lanka over the next four years in a range of sectors including real estate, energy and infrastructure, its Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said on Tuesday.
India is Sri Lanka’s largest trading partner and the South Asian neighbours are considering a broader trade agreement as President Maithripala Sirisena’s government tilts towards New Delhi after his predecessor pursued a pro-China policy.
“In the next two to four years, the total investment interests will rise to $2 billion,” Sitharaman told reporters in Colombo at the end of her visit.
“India has investment interests in a wide range of areas.”
Her visit comes as China, India’s regional rival, presses ahead with a $1.4 billion real estate project next to Colombo’s main port after the Sirisena government, in power since January 2015, briefly suspended it over suspected irregularities.

SA Kumar, dear old Sakodaraya,
There is NO KOLAVERI and NO INCONSISTENCY in my statements, only a failure to COMPREHEND on your part!
“ALL LAND IN Sri Lanka belongs to ALL of its people equally without any areas reserved for any particular community” is what I said.
But not PIECE by PIECE solely reserved for different communities as Wigneswaran and the late defunct SunGod wanted, but in its ENTIRETY as ONE NATION for ALL of its people to enjoy equally living whereever they want to without let or hinderance …. as the Tamil people do in Colombo, Dehiwala, Mount Lavinia and elsewhere!
Under such an EQUITABLE POLICY of EQUI-PRESENCE of all communities all over Sri Lanka, there can be NO “SINHALA COLONIZATION” in the North and East, just as there was no “TAMIL COLONIZATION” in the South!
It is the INALIENABLE right of ALL Sri Lankans to settle and live anywhere in Sri Lanka where they buy a property to live on.
Therefore, I am declaring a CONSISTENT PRINCIPLE without ANY INTERNAL inconsistency!
The Tamil Eelamist former Supreme Court Judge Wigneswaran, who should know better as one who is steeped to his gills in the law of the land, is inciting the Tamils to RISE UP in support of his communal APARTHEID TREASONOUS demand!
In contrast, I am asking the Sinhala people to RISE UP in defence of our shared Motherland to prevent the Eelamist separatist Tamils from RISING UP in response to Wihgneswaran’s to demand a Communal Eelam solely for Tamils and excluded to other communities in the land! When Tamils live PRIMARILY outside the North and the East, why is he demanding those territories EXCLUSIVELY for Tamils, and demanding SINHALA people to leave those areas?
That does not sound like a law abding citizen of Sri Lanka, but a RACIST DEMAGOGUE who has forgotten the law he had learned and practiced in the highest court of Sri Lanka with the HELP of Sinhala people! My God, the INGRATITUTDE and TREACHERY of this man is ASTOUNDING!
So, WHO IS DISSEMINATING KOLAVERI ….. my dear Sakodaraya …. SA Kumar? YOU or ME?
! – Rise up O Sinhalayeni! Your motherland needs your help NOW!- contradicting statement
September 27th, 2016 at 5:13 pm
Ananda-USA
I am asking the Sinhala people to RISE UP in defence of our shared Motherland to prevent the Eelamist separatist Tamils- in other word ???
We are divided community different language ,different religion,different way of life etc ….. for both community better solution United Lanka no other short cut won’t work .
Rise up , eluka Tamil, pogngu Tamil .. etc… all will lead to Eelam war V or Indian take over or another Mulli vaikkal (Nanthi Kadal) .
live & let’s live !!!
September 27th, 2016 at 6:38 pm
In 2013, INDIA signed 10 border agreements with China, to maintain peace along the borders with China. The Agreements state that NO arms will be used by either country against the other.
It seems that CM Wigneswaran wants to please foreign bosses INDIA & west, not the country that nurtures, feeds, with free education & health care, for him and his family !
Phew ! Such gratitude !
No lack of ingrates for poor old Lanka.
September 27th, 2016 at 10:10 pm
If the Yamapalanaya GoSL arrests Wigneswaran, I will eat my hat!
No puppet government as subservient to foreigner powers as the Yamapalanaya is will ever do that!
That is why Wigneswaran and other Eelamists DARE to do these things: they feel they are IMMUNE to RETRIBUTION in Sri Lanka!
But, WE Patriots have LONG MEMORIES, and LAWFUL PUNISHMENT will come in spades to these TRAITORS some day!

Arrest Wigneswaran: Gammanpila tells FCID
2016-09-26 16:04:32
Opposition MP Udaya Gammanpila said today he was looking forward for the arrest of Northern Province Chief Minister C.V. Wigneswaran, who spearheaded a demonstration called ‘Eluga Tamil’ (Let Tamils Rise) by violating the Public Property Act.
He accused the Chief Minister of misusing his letterhead and deploying employees and vehicles of the Council in the demonstration held on Saturday in Jaffna urging a federal solution to the national question among several other demands.
The demonstrators demanded an end to militarization and Sinhala colonization in the so-called Tamil homelands.
Mr. Gammanpila told a news conference held at the Pivithuru Hela Urumaya (PHU) office that for the first time, a Tamil separatist demonstration was held in the country with the backing of the State.
“We are awaiting the arrest of Mr. Wigneswaran by the Financial Crimes Investigation Division (FCID) and hope he will be remanded without bail,” he said.
Mr. Gammanpila said that it was a constitutional right of the people to settle in any part of Sri Lanka and it was unfortunate that Mr. Wigneswaran, a former Supreme Court Judge had forgotten this fact.
“The Sinhala population in Colombo was 51 per cent in 1981 but today it is 28 per cent. Tamils and Muslims who were forced to leave the North because of the war, settled down in Colombo. No one, not even those recognized as Sinhalese extremists urged the Tamils or Muslims to leave. Sinhalese who left the North during the war should be given the opportunity to resettle there,” he said.
Mr. Gammanpila accused the government of encouraging the Chief Minister and said the President and the Prime Minister should take the responsibility if any ‘Sinhala Wigneswarans’ were born in the future. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

The ancient history quoted here is not quite right. There were from around 600BC over 43 attempted invasions of the island by the Chola, Kalinga, Pandya, Vijayanagar etc. However only six succeeded. There was one invasion by a Malayan kingdom too. These were during Sinhala Kings Walagamba, Dhutugemunu, Dhathsena, Vijayabahu I, Parakramabahu II, Buvanekabahu V and Parakramabahu VI times. However invaders invaded Anuradhapura, Pollonnaruwa and stayed only for a short period of time and left the island once they were overwhelmed. There were no settlements due to these invasions except the very last invasion by Aryachakravarthi of the Jaffna Peninsula.
When looking at Sri Lanka’s history, it is extremely obvious that from 600BC to around 1400AD there were three kingdoms, all Sinhala Buddhist, Ruhuna, Pihiti or Rajarata and Maya or Malayarata. Rajarata encompassed today’s North Central, North Western, Northern and even the Central Province. Ruhunu rata encompassed today’s Uva, Eastern and Southern Provinces. The Kandyan Kingdom from 1400AD encompassed most of the island inclusive of today’s Northern and the Eastern Provinces except for the Jaffna Peninsula. Even the Jaffna Peninsula was invaded and occupied by force by Aryachakravarthi (Pandyan) and actually did belong to Rajarata earlier and later the Kandyan Kingdom.
Today’s provincial boundaries were drawn up by the British colonialists as per their divide and rule policy and the Sinhala people were not consulted when drawing up these provincial boundaries. In the meantime, most Sri Lankan Tamils of today were actually brought over during Dutch and British times to the Jaffna Peninsula and elsewhere to work on tobacco and indigo plantations which were planted extensively in all the colonies since they were much sought after and made a lot of money for the colonialists. Therefore they are recent arrivals and cannot claim homelands or separate states whatsoever.
The usual practice when a colonial power hands over their former colonies is to hand it over to its original owners. Therefore the British colonialists should hand over the Kandyan Kingdom to the Kandyan Sinhalese from whom they took it by force. Since the Kandyan Kingdom encompassed the North and the East, these provinces too should be handed over to the Kandyan Sinhalese who are its rightful owners. Even the Jaffna Peninsula should be handed over to the Kandyan Sinhalese since it was part of Rajarata and was forcefully occupied by Aryachakravarthi (Pandyan).
Since this has now been done already, the TNA, other separatists or the US, UK EU, Canada, Norway, Sweden and India cannot demand that present day Northern or even the Eastern provinces be provided any more powers or be made into federal states since this is totally going against the history and archaeology of the island and totally going against the rights of the Sinhala people who also have fundamental rights to claim the entire island inclusive of the North and the East as their homeland first and foremost.
History which was dropped as a subject should be taught at school since Sri Lanka has a very long history and it is very beneficial for the next generation to learn the history and archaeology of the island based on actual archaeological findings, archaeological ruins, artefacts, stone inscriptions, ola leaf writings and so on. Otherwise people will believe any bogus history invented by interested parties to their benefit, not based on facts but invented for their own nefarious purposes.
