A poor woman with some plants in her bag eyeing up a VIP who's hopped off a chopper into a Merc. The gap is profound, between the rich and the poor in 🇱🇰. She may be wondering why fate's been so unfair, why some have loads while others have bugger all. #lka

Oh that's right, you put them on house arrest.

[Deekshya Illangasinghe @DeekshyaI]

A very cowardly opposition too.

[Sajith Premadasa @sajithpremadasa]

A cowardly assault against PEACEFUL protestors, who agreed to vacate the sites today; A useless display of ego and brute force putting innocent lives at risk & endangers Sri Lanka’s international image, at a critical juncture.

[Iromi Perera @iromip]

A cowardly assault on democracy is also a useless opposition who failed to step up and act using the space created by the people’s protests but it’s too early in the morning for pettiness …. as you were buddy.

@LitmusTimes Typical Latheef no! Always in the mood for a celebration 😁

[Sahan Wiratunga @SahanWiratunga]

I should mention @EmDeeS11's superb coordinating skills and commitment to the cause. She expects nothing else in return, but a better country for every citizen of #lka. You are a true inspiration 💪. Without you, I think we would've given up our silent protests a long time ago

However these crucial points have not been captured. I have written to Reuters and asked them to retract their article. @exfrotezter

"The most vulnerable amongst us, the plantation workers, domestic workers, factory workers, farmers, and fishermen demand a government which is conscious of workers and farmers, one that will promote and protect workers’-farmers’ rights" #EconomicCrisisLK #PolityLK

@deannelu Totally!!! Well done @Meerasrini

[Deekshya Illangasinghe @DeekshyaI]

@deannelu Soooo much stress!! Poor Patis.

[Deekshya Illangasinghe @DeekshyaI]

Great analysis by @Meerasrini “But if it is truly system change that the citizen’s uprising desires, the Janatha #Aragalaya may have just begun.”

[Meera Srinivasan @Meerasrini]

#SriLanka: The tale of Gotabaya Rajapaksa's mighty fall, decidedly more pacey and dramatic than his giddy political ascent, had an unlikely protagonist — the ‘Janatha Aragalaya’: a profile of the movement that booted out the Rajapaksas https://t.co/769c0o6EXy via @the_hindu 1/3
