Governing Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) General Secretary MP Sagara Kariyawasam called on youths to take a stand against obstacles to the country’s development programme. Kariyawasam had told the media last week that the youths of the country should stand against any person who obstructs the country’s development agenda and that investments were needed for the country’s development. Referring to the opposition by Buddhist monks to the construction of jogging/walking paths along reservoirs, the SLFP General Secretary had questioned whether the Buddhist monks had objected when walking paths were being built in countries like Singapore and Malaysia.
