Colombo (News 1st): The National Election Commission says 5 leading political parties will be contesting the Elpitiya Pradeshiya Sabha Elections.

The Special Gazette Notification to commence Elpitiya Pradeshiya Sabha election on 11th of next month has been issued. On August 30th, the Supreme Court ordered the Elections Commission to conduct the election to elect members to the Elpitiya Pradeshiya Sabha. This was after considering a petition filed by the Secretary of the Democratic United National Front against rejecting its nominations for the Elpitiya Pradeshiya Sabha at the recent Local Government Elections.
