(UTV|COLOMBO) – Minister Rishad Bathiudeen is a democratic Muslim Leader in the country, the Minister of Health, Nutrition and Indigenous Medicine, Dr. Rajitha Senaratne asserted on Monday (27).
Minister Senaratne made this remarks addressing a media briefing held at the Temple Trees in Colombo.
He denied that there is any truth in the allegations levelled against Minister Bathiudeen and reiterated that the late Appapillai Amirthalingam, one of the most prominent Tamil Political Leaders of the past half-century was also accused in a similar manner.
Minister Senaratne emphasised that the allegations made against such democratic leaders are being done to create more terrorist leaders.
The Motion of No-Confidence is a politically motivated ploy, not aimed at just the Minister of Industry and Commerce, Resettlement of Protracted Displaced Persons, Co-operative Development and Vocational Training and Skills Development, but the whole Government, Minister Senaratne further added.
