Q: On the other side the government appears to be full of jokers who are maintained with public money. For example take Minister Mervyn Silva or for that matter the Prime Minister, who instead of resolving the Dambulla issue made it even more difficult with unnecessary utterances in public.
A: There was no involvement of government or the Minister in the Dambulla incident. This was a Mosque that had been there since early 1960s. They planned to expand it and some monks led a protest against it. But some people claimed that a Minister sold some land for it. The truth is that Muslims had bought the land 30 to 40 years ago.
Q: The follow up public utterances by the Premier about shifting the Mosque did not help matters either. May be his advance age is the problem.
A: I think the entire issue is now being settled. These are not big issues. They made a similar hue and cry when the Kandalama hotel was being built. The same people who opposed it are now enjoying its hospitality. If a Mosque is being built near a temple that is wrong, but enlarging an existing Mosque we cannot oppose. It is not good for communal relations.
