The Election Commission will hold its first post-general election meeting this Thursday (November 28) at 10:00 a.m., with a primary focus on the Local Government Elections.
Minister Vijitha Herath recently announced that the LG Elections are planned for January 2025. The Commission aims to expedite preparations, following a court directive stressing the urgency of the polls.
Despite this, challenges remain, as no funds have been allocated yet. A final decision on election funding is expected after discussions during the Interim Vote on Account in December.
Key updates on the election timeline and preparations are anticipated after Thursday’s meeting.
