Venerable Akmeemana Dayaratne Thero has urged Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya to resign immediately, alleging that she received funding from USAID to destabilize the country and erode its values.
Thero claims that Prime Minister Amarasuriya’s name appears on a list of individuals accused by the U.S. President of distributing USAID funds for political and social influence. He further alleges that the Prime Minister and certain groups were financially supported to promote homosexuality in Sri Lanka, a claim that he says is now being confirmed by recent revelations.
These accusations have sparked controversy, with calls for a full investigation into USAID’s financial activities in Sri Lanka. Critics, however, argue that such concerns should have been raised during previous administrations, questioning the timing of these allegations.
Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya, a well-known sociologist and academic, has yet to respond to the claims. As the situation unfolds, the public awaits further clarification and official statements regarding the allegations.
