Not in favour of 13A; could lead to separatism, EP Governor says

Eastern Province Governor Anuradha Yahampath today expressed her displeasure over the implementation of the 13th Amendment because it could lead to separatism in the country.

Addressing an event today, she said that she was totally against separatism.

“The separatism will cause no peace in the island and leads to war. If separatism is implemented in any small island, it will create issues. Similar practice has created enough of issues everywhere in the world. There has been war wherever there is separatism, particularly in island nations. “There is no peace in those countries, but raging war,” she said.

Therefore, I’m very much against separatism, she added.
