No equality. No Justice. No women. Only men who voted themselves into power.

Some MP's saying #Aragalaya put Sri Lanka from the frying pan into the fire. Yet more avoidance of any responsibility.
Lets be clear the Parliament did this by defying the direct calls of the people they are said to represent.
The people are doing our part. What are you doing?

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

Today Sri Lanka remains in the thrall of the Rajapakse regime, inevitable given a parliament controlled by them.
The fight for long term change and accountability must continue. Most importantly the people must not forget, the way they did last time.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

Today I continue to feel a strong sense of gratitude to the people at the heart of the #Aragalaya who stayed the course no matter what.
Yes we have to keep holding politicians accountable, we can't stop.
But we got this far because you all showed up every day.

An important message to get out, the idea of taking the parliament is not going to benefit the people we need a parliament to run the country.
This is against the true ethos of the Aragalaya.

Someone needs to separate ‘protestors’ from ‘anarchists’ when reporting about the groups acting outside the law. One represents the people and has the support of the people. The other is not fighting for anyone’s welfare except their own agenda. Clarity will ease sensationalism.

If there is any fascist in this country, he is speaking in this video. This man is trying to hold on to power, whatever the cost is. If he wanted to appoint a president with the speaker's support, he had two months to do so.

There's an easy way out of this. Step down.

[Benislos Thushan @benislos]

How quick some of you were with your hot takes on “disappointments from #Aragalaya” when they kept reiterating this isn’t over.

This FIGHT for our democracy is far from over.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

The true peoples aragalaya is not built on violence. Let us keep being better than our "so called leaders".

Protestors treating an Police STF officer who was injured in the commotion at the Prime Minister's office.

The STF are firing tear gas at the protestors.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

So we occupied the presdients house and office, nothing was set on fire. But somehow we decided to burn Ranil's house instead of raiding his fridge and taking selfies? Doesn't fully add up, no?
Let's not forget many factions are at play. The people's protest is mostly peaceful.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

Filled with so much pride watching a seemingly endless stream of people march to GGG.
Filled with endless gratitude for the determination and work of the true organisers of the Aragalaya.

A little bit of good news for Sri Lanka!

#GotaGoGama activist Amal Salinda was arrested by the police yesterday(20) under the charges of assaulting an intelligence officer inside Gota Go Gama. So, the new assignment of intelligence officers is to infiltrate public movements.

The idea that a corrupt regime, the same one that systematically degraded this country, will lead us out of this situation is absolute fallacy.

As someone who lives in Athurugiriya and saw what happened, let me tell you the story.
For the whole day, police came in and pumped for their vehicles, private vehicles and their friends' vehicles from the Athurugiriya IOC shed. People had enough of that bullshit and confronted

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

@samadsaleem9 @got_2025 Yes you have every right to yours.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

No matter what some say, we will NEVER move forward until the parties in power chnage.
Done forget why we started.

@priyandon I don't profess to be political analyst, just a citizen with the ability to look at the situation, see the recurring trends that I have seen my entire life & form an opinion.
To me change is the only answer, I will express that, as you are entitled to express your point if view.

[Minali de Silva @Mminz]

@got_2025 @samadsaleem9 @deshald The idea that only GR and RW can get foreign support and investment is ridiculous, the support is not contingent on them, the only thing we have seen is thier tendency to keep a cut on everything.
