Recently in
Ampara there was a manifestation of the people against Muslim eateries for
supposed to have introduced pills to sterilise Sinhala women. Some time
ago a Bakery near a Girls’ School in
Katugastota was similarly accused of selling cakes from two counters one for
Sinhala Girls and another for Muslim Girls. The cakes sold to Sinhala Girls
were supposed to have contained the dreaded sterility pills. The Bakery was
finally closed down.
The JVP which
is trying to be the Diyasena of Sri Lanka today–a panacea to all political ills
coming from Yahapalanaya on one side,
and the Rajapaksas and SLPP on the other, deplore these current unrest between the
Muslim and Sinhala Communities.
The JVP
went for the Local Government election crying high and low its political
slogan that the Yahaplanaya government
representing the UNP and the SLFP, and
SLPP representing the President Mahinda Rajapakse are all thieves, bribe
takers, and with them there is no political future for the country, therefore
the people should vote for the JVP the party which consists of honest
Diyasernas who can revitalise and bring peace and prosperity to Sri Lanka.
But
unfortunately for JVP, the people preferred to avoid Diyasenas and voted for the
SLPP which represented their dear President Mahinda Rajapakse who ended the 30
year war , developed the country to a great extent and thwarted the separatist
Tamil political effort to a Communal division of the country.
The writer
had stressed in several articles to Lankaweb , that the JVP if they are a
Marxist political party as they like to call themselves, should have nothing to
do with the Capitalist UNP and other reactionary forces, but unite with the
Socialist movement of the Country represented today by SLPP to make the people
experience their positive contribution to the development of Sri Lanka, instead of running after illusive thieves they say are with President
Mahinda Rajapakse and the SLPP .
Now after
having been completely and shamefully
rejected by the people at the Local Government elections, the JVP is
making use of the present upsurge of Communal tension between the Muslims and
the Sinhala, to show that JVP is again the political panacea for the settlement
of Communal tension.
They –the
JVP, say that, the people should not follow either the Yahapalanaya with its UNP and other
reactionary forces , as they are creating the Communal tension to stay in power, nor the SLPP and Mahinda Rajapakse as they are creating
Communal tension to come back to power. Therefore the
people have only one choice the JVP,
which is between the present two villainous political groups in fray, which is
capable of settling the present communal upheaval.
JVP assures
the people that the so called
sterilising pills found in the food
served in a Muslim Restaurant were inoffensive lumps of flour. And JVP member Handunetti stressed that there
is no such thing as pills to sterilise women and it is only an excuse for certain
political elements in Ampara to accuse the innocent Muslims, making it
political issue.
However, Handunetti
is not far from the truth that there is no pills in the world market to sterilize women, and what was said to have
been found in the food served in a Muslim Restaurant may have been “some thing
different”.
Only way to
sterilize a woman it is said is by
blocking the fallopian tubes to stop
male sperm from reaching the womb.
But, there
isnevertheless, a pill called the
Abortion pill which can force miscarriage in a woman if administered during the
early period of conception. Only way to find out whether such pills are
being used in an “unauthorised manner “,
is to collect statistics from hospitals in areas where any pills were found in
the food, to see whether there had been reports of an abnormal
number of cases of miscarriages amoung the women in the area. That may
be a clue, or a mere coincidence.
But danger
of such reports is that it can create a psychological fear of conception amoung
women that may cause miscarriages. However, finding unknown substances in food
served to people in Muslim eateries should be investigated. Our own Muslims may
not indulge in such activities , but the infiltration of foreign Muslim
fanatics in to Muslim villages cannot be ruled out.
We never
believed that our Tamil youth could be trained as terrorists in the Jungles of South
India, but it did happen and when we came to know about it, it was too late. There are reports that there
are special schools that teach terror in the name of God. Hence it is the role
of the Government to see that no such thing is being prepared secretly in the backwoods of Sri Lanka .
Unfortunately
our Secret Service has been completely dis-organised
by Sirisena Ranil Yahapaalanaya Government, and we do not seem to have a reliable Secret
Service. With the American and British Agents interfering into our Armed Forces
providing them with training etc., our Armed Forces are disarmed against
questionable activities by Foreign Forces
which may be detrimental to
Communal relations in our Country.
Therefore,
JVP in assuming to be the Divine Saviour of Sri Lanka presently in complete political
disarray, may be forgetting that there may be activities taking place behind scene -in the back stage,
which may rise up one day and go
completely uncontrollable , as it was with
terrorism in 1970s.
