Seneviratne, Acting Inspector General of Police Priyantha Weerasuriya and Justice Minister Advocate Harshana Nanayakkara was present.<br \/>Speaking to the media, Public Security Minister Ananda Wijayapala stated that he hopes to make the Sri Lanka Police a non-politicized public service, especially in line with President Anura Kumara Dissanayake&#8217;s wish and would further develop the Sri Lanka Police and support the President&#8217;s program.<br \/>Minister Wijayapala says that the people in the last general election gave a large mandate to prepare the necessary environment for the Sri Lankan Police to carry out its duties independently, and he hopes to honour this mandate in carrying out his duties.<br \/>He further said that, as expected by the mandate, he is committed to fighting bribery, corruption, fraud, drugs and the underworld.<br \/>He also said that the public&#8217;s goodwill towards the institutions under the Ministry of Public Security and Parliamentary Affairs will be developed, and all institutions will work to provide people-friendly services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a
