The moon lamp near the entrance to the courtyard of the Ruwanweli Seya and the watchtowers on both sides are reported missing, destroying a site of archaeological value.
According to the video, a new construction has taken place at the site and it seems that the antiquities are not there. However, the Archaeological Ordinance prohibits such constructions at an ancient site.
During the time of the present Director of Archeology, many ancient sites have been destroyed. The Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy, various ancient temples and shrines as well as many other places that have been named as ancient have been destroyed in this manner. Also, the nation loses the oldest archeological equipment under the present Director of Archeology. At that time the antiquities of the temple were lost.
Also, treasure hunts and various other incidents have taken place at the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy, which is considered to be the pinnacle of Buddhism, as well as at Ruwan Weliseya. But the Director General of Archeology, the Commissioner of Buddhist Affairs or the Sri Lanka Police responsible for them are still in their sleep.
Director General of Archeology Anura Manatunga as the person who helped to destroy the history of Sri Lanka. Commissioner General of Buddhism Sunanda Kariyapperuma is the person who is aiding and abetting the destruction of Buddhism. They go down in history as two other destructive government officials who destroyed the nation and religion. Also, after the departure of the imperialists from Sri Lanka, Buddhism underwent a massive decline, religious destruction and most archeological destruction took place during the time of these two government officials.
