When we listen to the views of responsible citizens there arises another opinion which we have to admit even reluctantly. According to the present political culture, our administrative capacity, financial resources, wisdom and discipline are not sufficient to conduct peaceful elections. Wayamba is a very good example. But let us not forget the fact that we have produced many 'Wayambas' during the last two decades. Then let's turn our attention to our politicians.
Democracy can save itself only by becoming aristocratic.
Its leaders must be men of integrity and independence, of discernment and devotion to truth. It becomes mob rule if astute and unscrupulous politicians inflame the mob and direct it to their own selfish ends. It is therefore essential that the leaders are wisely and carefully chosen. After our independence during the last 50 years we have heard and seen hundreds of thousands of speeches by politicians, thousands of analyses, many hundreds of acts passed by various legislative bodies, and countless decisions in the field of administration and politics. But the true picture people could see now is, many of the speeches of our politicians sound like Satanic verses.
