He was extending condolences to late MP Ranjith Zoysa on behalf of the party in Parliament. In his address of condolence, he said:
“One needs to have this passion for politics.Without it, no one can succeed. He was once involved in JVP student politics. He must have had an influence of our politics which shaped his character.
Whatever the ideological differences we may have had, Zoysa was always a great colleague who had that political spirit in him. Zoysa was there for his political party at the direst need.
Whenever there was a need of a person of personality to represent the political party, Zoysa was there. He had the political and the social personality to face people. He had no charges or allegations on corruption. He had that strong identity. He had a passion to learn. Zoysa was a contemporary politician who contributed immensely for his political party.”
