United
National Party (UNP) media spokesman Gayantha Karunathilaka
said at a press briefing held at the Opposition Leader's
office today that the most unstable present Government's
only savior was Prabakaran.
He
said that the Government behaved shamefully at the budget
removing the security of the TNA MPs, abducting the son-in-law
of MP K. Kanagasabesan to force him not to vote against
budget, attempting to terrify UNP MP Sagala Rathnayaka
by sending Army to his house and trying to take MPs Ravi
Karunanayaka, Wajira Abewardhana and Earl Gunasekara to
the CID.
He
said that the expenses for the firecrackers and the posters
to celebrate the budget victory obtained through misuse
of state power would also fall on the shoulders of the
public. Only the colossal cabinet of the Rajapakse regime
will benefit from this budget while the people will lose,
he said.
UNP
MP Gayantha Karunathilaka says that the only savior for
the Government is Prabakaran whom the Government takes
cover to increase prices and impose new taxes. The budget
win is also depicted as a loss to the Tigers and Elephants.
JVP too will be tagged as Tiger accomplices.
Karunathilaka
said that all these showed the weakness of the Government
and the fall of this unstable Government could be at the
coming third reading of the budget.
