Media freedom is          therefore a sacrosanct, and must be preserved at all times to ensure the          features of democracy in a society. Sri Lanka's Constitution upholds          freedom of expression, speech and publication as fundamental rights of          all citizens. Like all other democratic rights, freedom of expression is          granted to all the citizens equally and not only for those who engaged          in the media industry. Apropos of Sri Lanka's media freedom or "free          media" as some claim, this seems to have been meant otherwise.</p></blockquote><p></p>
