The Minister had boldly added that from the time Sri Lanka gained Independence in the year 1948 no politician has yet to h from his own funds.have started and completed any development project.Such projects have been started and completed from loans obtained at high interest fro developed countries or with aid and concessions.In that event the brunt of the burden has to be shouldered by the innocent people in the payment of loan installments.like who sell lottery tickets baked in hot sun those who work in workshops,factories and trying to make ends meet.It is from the taxes collected from sale of sugar and rice etc the government has to repay the loans thus obtained
