Public wrathb/ anger is paving the way for momentous changes in Sri Lanka.
The ongoing protests against the precipitous fall in the island nation’s economic fortunes have reached a crescendo.द्वीप राष्ट्र की आर्थिक स्थिति में भारी गिरावट के खिलाफ चल रहे विरोध प्रदर्शन चरम पर पहुंच गए हैं।
President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, whose secretariat was overrun by thousands of people and his official residence occupied by boisterous protesters, and Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, whose private residence was set ablaze, have both expressed readiness to resign.
Mr. Rajapaksa, the main target of the people’s unbridled anger, has conveyed his willingness to resign on July 13, while Mr. Wickremesinghe is awaiting an alternative all-party government to be ready to take over before he steps down.लोगों के बेलगाम गुस्से के मुख्य लक्ष्य श्री राजपक्षे ने 13 जुलाई को इस्तीफा देने की अपनी इच्छा व्यक्त की है, जबकि श्री विक्रमसिंघे अपने पद छोड़ने से पहले एक वैकल्पिक सर्वदलीय सरकार के सत्ता में आने का इंतजार कर रहे हैं
It is now fairly clear that the people have not been pacified by the formation of a new regime under Mr. Wickremesinghe.
खुश नहीं
The boiling over of public anger on July 9 indicates their utter dissatisfaction with his government’s efforts to address their day-to-day problems.
सरकार
There were questions about Mr. Wickremesinghe’s political legitimacy to hold the office, given that he belongs to a party with no elected representative in the legislature and he himself being a nominee based on its vote percentage.
सहयोग
However, despite the arrival of some overseas aid and commencement of a process for an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout,
there has been no significant relief for the people, especially the poor and the vulnerable.
The next few days are crucial for the country
as it will show whether the political class can rise above its differences and put in place an alternative regime that can steer the country towards economic recovery.
Under the country’s Constitution
the Prime Minister and then the Speaker of Parliament are in line to act as President if the highest office falls vacant.
Parliament can elect a new President by a secret ballot
The way out seems to be that the current Speaker, Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena, takes over
as President so that, within 30 days, Parliament can elect a new President by a secret ballot.
However, these moves will be contingent / group on the resignations actually materialising.
Any delay in creating conditions for the emergence of an alternative may not go down well with the public, and may lead to more unsavoury incidents.
The occupants of the two main offices will have to make their decisions early so that the country’s transition to a stable regime can be easy. दो मुख्य कार्यालयों के रहने वालों को अपने निर्णय जल्दी करने होंगे ताकि देश का स्थिर शासन में परिवर्तन आसान हो सके।
It is possible to argue that mere regime change may redound to nobody’s benefit, will achieve nothing more than mollifying the masses for now, and will not ease the economic travails of the people.
यह तर्क दिया जा सकता है कि केवल शासन परिवर्तन से किसी का लाभ नहीं हो सकता है, जनता को शांत करने के अलावा और कुछ हासिल नहीं होगा, और लोगों के आर्थिक संकट को कम नहीं करेगा।
हालांकि, यह हमेशा बेहतर होता है कि एक औपचारिक प्रक्रिया को सार्वजनिक विद्रोह की अनिवार्यताओं पर छोड़े जाने की तुलना में परिवर्तन को प्रभावित करने के लिए गति में रखा जाता है।
However, it is always better that a formal process is set in motion to effectuate change than it being left to the exigencies of a public uprising.
It will also impart some much-needed political legitimacy to whoever will emerge as President and Prime Minister and steer the country through troubled times.
यह राष्ट्रपति और प्रधान मंत्री के रूप में उभरने वाले और मुश्किल समय में देश को चलाने के लिए कुछ आवश्यक राजनीतिक वैधता भी प्रदान करेगा।
देश अब नए सिरे से चुनाव नहीं कर सकता; न ही यह बिना नेतृत्व के हो सकता है।
The country cannot afford a fresh election now; nor can it be without a leadership.
