Oh! The almighty power of nature!
We alert you!
Please do not send your dangerous messages
Of cyclone, flood and even tsunami
On a holiday or on Sundays
Especially on poya days!
Because our honorable minister of Science and
Technology
Raises a thought provoking
Un scientific question of the century
To a bunch of questioning journalists,
“It was a poya day.
Do you work on a holiday?”
And he accused technologically
It’s the error of the previous government
Of not filling the vacancies
And even “issuing a circular….
Not to fill these vacancies”
Oh! The almighty power of nature!
We alert you again!
And again!!
Please do not send your dangerous messages
On a holiday or on Sundays
Especially on poya days!
S.Jeyasankar
