The “ Kanjo” means those council askaris because they are not askaris per se . So, I cannot call them askaris because they are not legally askaris. So I do not know which word to use.

• 22 Oct 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for allowing me to contribute to this very important Motion. I also want to thank Sen.

• 13 Oct 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to ride on that and seek clarification on whether the Government is aware that there are many hospitals which turn away patients on the basis of ailments that they have.
