Speaking at a media briefing held on Friday, Media Spokesperson of the Jathika Hela Urumuya Nishantha Sri Warnasinghe announced that the JHU fully endorses the proposal to introduce electoral reforms.

He further noted that the preferential voting system should be removed and that a public representative who will be responsible for the electorate should be appointed.

The JHU media spokesperson also stated that if new geographical areas are to be determined, it must be done by taking the aspirations of the people into account and steer clear of creating divisions within ethnicity. He also urged to not ignore the people’s needs and cast them aside and appealed to pass the 20th amendment to the constitution and make the people triumphant.
