Another Buddhist Worship Location Destroyed by Tamils in North
A Buddhist shrine room erected within the premises of Special Task Force camp in Kanagarayankulam, Mankulam in the North had been vandalised on Monday 29, the Police said.
The camp, established after the war victory in 2009, does not exist in that location at present.
The shrine room has been constructed at the time for religious observances of the STF personnel.
The Buddha statue has also been broken to pieces, the Police said. The Police have started investigations into the incident
In the recent past, since the so- called Yahapalana government taken over the office in 2015, the attacks and discriminations on Sinhala Buddhists are going in systematical manner. The Minister of Buddhism stated that Sri Lanka is not a Sinhala Buddhist country while Prime Minister who is widely unpopular as anti-Sinhala Buddhists, Ranil Wickramasignhe confirmed the same at an Islamic Conference in Indonesia recently. Further, former president, Chandrika Bandaranayke whose farther is a converted Buddhist to gain political advantages and her late husband is a Christian, stated publicly that she wanted to destroy the Sinhala Buddhists fundamentals and majoritism in Sri Lanka. Currently, she is running a government sponsored office for so called Reconciliation to reach her sinister move.
Further, many obstructions and violence have been initiated by Yahapalana government partners, pro-LTTE Tamil terrorist political party TNA in Northern and Eastern two provinces by obstructing development of Buddhist temples and Buddhist worships places. Recently, extremist Tamils with the patronage of NPC members destroy a Buddhist worship place in Trincomalee, Northern Province.
The Government has not taken any effective measures to protect such Buddhists places; contrary the pro-minority government are trying to dilute the foremost position of Buddhism in Sri Lanka by constitutionally.
