He was under the sense\u00a0\u00a0that Gotabhaya was a visionary leader by the work he had done to the country by beautifying, not allowing to smoke on roads etc during his tenure at the UDA. But he was a complete failure in his accomplishments since appointed President which were at a very low ebb<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7MGCtBj0axg?si=rNlCExYs5H-B8kYS\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Uddika represents two diverse fields, to one he receives huge accolades\u00a0\u00a0and appreciation\u00a0\u00a0from varied audiences , the other no such reception as a people\u2019s representative in\u00a0\u00a0the parliament elected from the Anuradhapura district. Uddika prefers him be called by his name given by his mother not as \u2018manthree thuma\u2019.He is a person who works relentlessly\u00a0\u00a0towards an anticipated\u00a0\u00a0target which hitherto not endeavoured by previous politicians. Uddika comes to Colombo to join the \u2018Horizon \u2018 band as the principal soloist. The group had won the award for the best group which had felt Uddika very elated. Uddika also had featured in musuc videos initially in songs of Chamika. During his tenure in his early married life he recollects as extremely tedious and very stressful a he had to come to Colombo to rehearse in the \u2018Horizon\u2019 musical band\u00a0\u00a0from Anuradhapura\u00a0\u00a0and return home by catching a bus\u00a0\u00a0from Polgahawela after been dropped by the band van after the concert as his wife was all alone .It had been invariably standing and falling asleep in the bus.For Uddika then it was bearable as had been brought up with sufferings trying to survive.The following day too Uddika it was a routine. Many people in Anuradhapura district are used to such torments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MDv2UfvRMUY?si=ahfjjpR7jEf7flq6\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u00a0Then he gets opportunity to act as an actor without any hereditary affiliations. He is a person like others wishes to always elevate from his current position to a slightly taller location from whatever profession. The opportunities that come need to be exploited to the maximum should endeavour to explore more avenues by deviating from them to figure a personality for oneself. During this journey during a short period Uddika was voted as the most popular actor winning many other awards having commenced his acting career in year 2005 initially been nominated on several occasions at award ceremonies for awards, replicating vivid characters . Uddika has\u00a0\u00a0confessed that he never dreamt of becoming the best or the most popular acter believe he may have been merited to receive them. Uddika always had endeavoured to preform to the best of his ability not withstanding the fact he wins awards or not. Uddika has innate talent as a vocalist has been acclaimed as a vocalist too.When he submitted his nomination papers for the general election many fans and supporters had objected saying why you are going to the \u2018vama wala\u2019\u00a0\u00a0.But to date he has not made any harm or injury to his position as a back bencher in the parliament as a member of\u00a0\u00a0Wimal Weerawansa\u2019s leftist party, having made a few explosive speeches boldly saying he is now an independent member in the\u00a0\u00a0parliament. The contents of his few speeches had contained very vital information targeting some senior ministers had been well received and applauded by a majority. He confesses that his followers would very soon realize what his future plans are as he thinks in a very dissimilar mode. For changes he believes it is extremely difficult as our political system cannot be changed overnight which has remained static for decades.According to Uddika we have no established system in the parliament unlike in the developed countries. He believes that from such speeches satisfying the audiences is not his target but to make appropriate strategies , monitoring them for the advancement of the country. Uddika is against the politicians who stick on for ages doing nothing, hence need to have a proper structure to allow the nest generation to come in and perform with change in strategies according to the dire desires of the citizens, as the country should prosper with time which has not happened to date. It has revealed what had prompted Uddika to come in to politics after listening to a television confession of Minister Wimal Weerawansa who had shed tears while speaking on the Easter terrorist catastrophe when Uddika had called him had unanimously decided to come to politics contesting under\u00a0\u00a0the \u2018Jathika Nidahas Peramuna\u2019 label. At a meeting subsequently had lamented that he needed to address the dire wants of the people in Anuradhapura district like farming, water, kidney deceases, unemployment issues of youth more importantly children\u2019s education. After two years in parliament Uddika has written to all the related authorities in order to obtain redress to all concerned. Each Member of Parliament\u00a0\u00a0are allocated from the decentralised budget\u00a0\u00a0a certain amount of money which he distributes among the people according to their needs after a appropriate scrutiny. According to Uddika in a country with so many burning issues like in Anuradhapura giving a small amount of money to make a culvert, to display a name board, for medical attention are scarcely sufficient . In an initial sitting in the parliament Uddika had brought edible \u2018bada irungu\u2019 for all two hundred and twenty five to eat and suggested this could be substituted for \u2018lentils\u2019 ( parippu) and also so many other biproducts could be made out from them\u00a0\u00a0but surprised as to why we are not starting projects like that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xVtRlJR60Uw?si=SQZ8GHVXasFix_d9\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u00a0Uddika concurrently had pioneered on an agricultural farming project on television in order to make modern farmers, using modern equipment how to prepare for \u2018yala\u2019, \u2018maha\u2019 seasons. Though Uddika had taken these proposals to senior politicians they were unwilling to pursue this proposed lucrative program. It has been voiced by Uddika that he had invited the then President, agriculturists and over thirty professors to a seminar and workshop in Anuradhapura but regrets was unable to take it off the blocks Uddika contemplates that these were not implemented as the junior politician would be highlighted , could get marks and prominence over the senior politicians. This is what Uddika believes could be made via\u00a0\u00a0new system\u00a0\u00a0thinking differently be established. These practices are implemented by many developed countries which have unfortunately deprived to our society which needs a paradise shift. A strategic plan\u00a0\u00a0titled \u2018piripun\u2019 is under preparation to which people could agree, disagree or add proposals and pinpoint shortcomings. Uddika with the assistance\u00a0\u00a0of knowledgeable personnel are formulating a manifesto . Any person could argue ,show discrepancies\u00a0\u00a0and add any suggestions to uplift living standards\u00a0\u00a0from all walks of people to make this venture a resounding success. The initiative of Uddika should be hailed and appreciated to tall elevations as he and his group are endeavouring to commence a new leaf to all people via a modern ideally suited parliament manifesto to make\u00a0\u00a0a system change which is currently a dire requirement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M1OYmDpU_Ag?si=N-9FkBFBl6-AiR5j\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;
