All campaign activities for the forthcoming 2025 Local Government (LG) Election are scheduled to end at midnight on 03 May, according to the National Election Commission.
Election Commissioner General Saman Sri Ratnayake said the period from 03 May until election day will be declared the pre-poll silent period.
He added that the door-to-door distribution of official ballot papers ends today. Those who have not received their ballot papers can collect them from their area’s sub-post office after April 30 by verifying their identity until election day. The Postal Department also issued a similar announcement.
The EC has decided to use the little finger to mark the appropriate symbol during the LG elections this year.
Meanwhile, the distribution of the official election notices given to the Postal Department for distribution is nearly completed.
