A report has been called to find out why the Member of PC who ordered a teacher to kneel down was invited for school sports meet
The Wayamba province education minister Sandya Kumara Rajapaksa had called explanation and a report from the school authorities as to why a former member of the PS Ananda Sarath Kumara who was convicted by courts for an offence was invited as one of the chief quests at the inter house sports meet at the Navodya Vidyalaya Nawagaththegama.
It should be brought to light that the former member of the PS was penalised for the offence of ordering a teacher to kneel down and was punished in courts. The same person who was invited for the inter school sports meet of Navodya Vidyalaya Nawagaththtgama by the school authorities as a chief guest had been welcomed at the function and taken in a procession to the play ground with the beating of musical instruments of the school band.As the former member of PC was convicted in courts he was even deprived in contesting for the Wayamba province elections.
The education minister of Wayamba PC had pointed out that such a person to be invited and brought in a procession is itself a huge mistake. It had been pointed out by the education minister of the Wayamba PC that such a welcome note could be accorded to a person when the President, Prime Minister or the education Minister had participated in the ceremony only.
