Continuing Ferial Ashraff said people of all communities especially in the coastal belt of Ampara District were fortunate in having the service of the late Leader of SLMC Al-Haj M.H.M. Ashraff, who was above racial, social and political bias. But the people of the area are now highly worried over on the activities of Rauff Hakeem. He has immensely damaged the SLMC in various ways. Those who benefited through the SLMC are still remaining with it though they clearly understood the pulse of the majority Muslims of Ampara District. Even though Rauff Hakeem becomes an MP once again, he will be rejected by the majority of Muslims in future, she said. |
