Dashing Opener Sanath Jayasurya was inducted into the Sri Lankan president Maithripala Sirisena’s Government as a Deputy Minister recently. He is one among the four MPs (Wijaya Dahanayake, Eric Weerawardene and Thilanga Sumathipala) to be sworn in as Deputy Ministers last week. In fact, He also served as Deputy Minister of Postal Services in former President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s Government after being elected as MP from his native Matara district.
Sanath Jayasurya got appointed as Deputy Minister of Local Government & Rural Development in Sirisena’s regime. The above picture is a moment captured while the former cricketer is assuming the office.
Jayasurya is known to be the most fearless sportsperson in Cricket history. If he could remain unchanged while dealing with corruption and lifting the standards of people in rural areas, Nothing could stop him from becoming a real-life hero rather than just a sporting Legend. Good luck Sanath!!!
