All party village unity by Mihintale Pradeshiya Sabha candidates
View(s):Four kilometres off Anuradhapura town in a remote village, candidates from all political parties contesting the Mihintale Pradeshiya Sabha gathered at a temple last Sunday on the invitation of the Buddhist monk of the temple. The candidates took part in a Bodhi Pooja and listened to a sermon (Anushasanawa) where the theme was the unity of the village amidst elections. “This is the message I want to get across to the
candidates,” Ven Hewane Bodhiseela Thera of the Sriyanandjothi Vivekasensanya in Kurundankulam Anuradhapura, told the Sunday Times, which was present to capture the moment. Pic by Lakshman Gunathilake.
