Electoral Reactivation of Provincial Councils
My late friend and comrade Kethesh Loganathan, a Georgetown alumnus and theoretician of the Marxist-led EPRLF, wrote a book titled Lost Opportunities, which he believed was the key motif of the Sri Lankan tragedy.
Historical events, such as JR's promise of an ethnic Roundtable in 1977, which was only convened in 1984, and SWRD's failure to enter the B-C Pact immediately after the Sinhala Only act in 1956, are cited as examples of missed chances.
Additionally, Chandrika's failure to implement the B-C Pact or 13A in her first year is also mentioned as a lost opportunity.
When will AKD hold PC elections?
The author reflects on the past, referencing notable figures such as US Ambassador Robert Blake and President Mahinda Rajapaksa, highlighting the need for electoral reactivation of provincial councils as an urgent systemic imperative.
Author's summary: Electoral reactivation is urgent.
