It was not “Nandhi” but “Nandasena”

When the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) staged a placards protest inside the Parliament chamber on Wednesday, against Police intervention of their demonstration the previous day, one of the MPs was seen holding a placard written in Tamil.

The placard read “Nandhi” - a Hindu symbolic emblem of the cow. Desperate Government supporters tried to take advantage of it by portraying it as hurting the religious sentiments of Hindus. Later, SJB Parliamentarian Vadivel Suresh quickly intervened to offer clarification. He said there was a spelling mistake on the placard and what they meant was “Nandasena should go home” not “Nandhi.”
