Former Sri Lanka Cricket Captain Kumar Sangakkara took to Twitter today to question a comment made by Cabinet Spokesman Minister Bandula Gunawardena.
When it came to the topic about upcoming general elections at the media briefing held yesterday to inform the decisions taken by the Cabinet, Minister Bandula Gunawardena said “hundreds of people were dying of dengue under the previous government, but still elections were held. The deaths caused by COVID-19 are nothing compared to dengue”.
The former Cricket Star tweeted
“Not the most enlightened comment, is it?”, in reply to the Newswire article on Minister Bandula Gunawardena’s statement.
