  • Role of Government Agent in Local Administration in Sri Lanka
    International Journal of Education and Research Vol. 2 No. 2 February 2014 Role of Government Agent in Local Administration in Sri Lanka R.A.W. Ranasinghe Head, Department of Political Science University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka Abstract The Government Agent (GA) represented the highest authority of the district Administration in the pre-independent Sri Lanka. A similar position known as the “Disawe” could be found in the local administration in the kandyan kingdom. The post of the disawe was replaced by the colonial post of the GA. The powers and functions of the GA made him a petty king in the district. The GA commanded his duty centering in his official place known as Kachchery. The beginning of the 20th Century, the GA played a significant role in district administration in Sri Lanka. Despoil of power and functions of the GA by the political authority were accelerated with the introduction of the Provincial Council system in 1987. Presently the GA is not other than a government servant who plays a role of a coordinator. Also GA has become a victim of the rapid process of politicization of bureaucracy. Key Words: Government Agent, Disawa, Local Government, Administration, Local Administration 01. Introduction The Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) became a victim of the western colonialism since the beginning of the 16th Century. The significance of the island in Geo-political location and resource endowment was attracted by world powers especially the western imperialists who were been involved in a great competition for naval and commercial power since the 16th century to 19th century.

There are approximately one million plantation Tamils in Sri Lanka (Ottawa Citizen 20 Nov. 2006; US 8 Mar. 2006, Sec. 5). According to 2005 and 2006 news sources, the ethnic group represents between five and six percent of Sri Lanka's population (EIU 17 July 2006; PNG Post Courier 17 Nov. 2005). Sri Lankan Tamils reportedly account for close to 13 percent of the country's population (ibid.). Many plantation Tamils live in the plantation districts of Sri Lanka's central highlands (Asia & Pacific Review World of Information 29 Apr. 2006; UN 1 Oct. 2004). They also live on plantations in southern Sri Lanka (ibid.). According to Sri Lanka's 2001 Census of Population and Housing, the largest concentrations of plantation Tamils are found mainly on tea estates in the districts of Nuwara Eliya, Badulla, Kandy, Ratnapura and Kegalle.

The study revealed that there are shortcomings in data collection, data storage and data sharing, which are important for fulfilling the requirements of four pillars of disaster management, i.e., mitigation–minimising the effects of © Faculty of Management Studies disaster, preparedness–planning on how to respond, Sabaragamuwa response–efforts to minimise hazards created by a University of Sri Lanka disaster; and recovery–returning the community to normal.

It depends upon the conduct ofthe people that constitute the nation. We must recognize that the country does not mean just the lifeless soil around us. The country consists ofa conglomeration ofpeople and it is what they make ofit. To rectify the world and put it on proper path, we have to first rec­ tify ourselves and our conduct.... At the present time, when we see all over the country confusion, fear and anxiety, each one in every home must con­ ., tribute his share ofcool, calm love to suppress the anger and fury. No governmental authority can sup­ press it as effectively and as quickly as you can by love and brotherliness.
