The SLFP Central Committee yesterday decided to sack the UPFA North-Western Provincial Councillor Ananda Sarath Kumara for allegedly humiliating a lady teacher by ordering her to kneel in the presence of students and teachers because she had asked his daughter not wear a short uniform to school.
The Central Committee chaired by President Mahinda Rajapaksa met last morning at temple Trees and also decided not to nominate him for any future elections
"North-Western Provincial Councillor Ananda Sarath Kumara, who was found guilty of forcing a school teacher to kneel before him, has been appointed as the new organiser of SLFP for Anamaduwa by President Maithripala Sirisena today." - 2017-10-13 Dailymirror
