An election commission was not necessary as the functions of the Commissioner of Electricians is quite adequate says President Mahinda Rajapaksa.
The President said this in response to a question posed by a journalist at the monthly meeting of media heads held at Temple Trees yesterday (22nd). The journalist asked whether the elections commission would be established before the election to the Northern Provincial Councils is held.
The President said the election to the Northern PC would be definitely held in September and emphasized that there was no reason to postpone it
