Greatest responsibility to protect hard-won freedom - President


“It is with very much pleasure that I send this message of greetings on Ranaviru Day - set apart to commemorate the War Heroes who made the supreme sacrifice for the unity of our motherland,” President Mahinda Rajapaksa said.

The message: “The cherished dream of peace that we as a nation yearned for decades has now come true.

“The honour for this should solely be with our armed forces.

Let us bow our heads in homage to those thousands who sacrificed life and limb for the freedom we enjoy today.

“It is our greatest responsibility to protect our hard won freedom. Ensuring that we leave no room for terrorism or separatism to raise their ugly heads again in this country is the greatest tribute we can pay to our heroes of war. “The entire nation should come forward and assist the families of those brave soldiers who died or were maimed in this great struggle for peace and unity. This is our duty and responsibility. I trust both the government and citizens will look after the welfare of Ranaviru families, to make them feel secure with the assurance that society at large has not forgotten them. I join the entire nation to salute all our War Heroes.”
