Weerawansa short-circuits himself on the electricity hike and meal reduction
"
This 15% hike in the electricity bill is happening in a country where 24.5% [of the population], that is one-fourth, are mired in poverty, and where 51% satisfy themselves by eating just two meals per day. [...] When this hike in the electricity bill has that kind of an impact […] The 51% who have two meals per day will turn into 51% who have just one meal per day.
