The younger generation doesn\u2019t know how the UNP paved the way for the separatists before 12-years ago or how they acted during the 88-89 insurrection period,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He also went into say that there is a clear threat to the national security. The cabinet approval has not been granted for a request to give compensations for terrorists,\u201d he said, adding that the present government, however, has ignored those who sacrificed their lives or been disabled in service of the country. This would have been a world record, if the request was given the cabinet nod,\u201d Rajapaksa pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>He also accused the present government of issuing some 27 license to import ethanol spirits within 100-days of time.<\/p>\n<p>We never ran in an unconstitutional manner.
