NPP finalizing nomination lists for general election
The National People’s Power (NPP) is finalizing its district-level nomination lists for the upcoming General Election, according to NPP General Secretary Dr. Nihal Abeysinghe.
He revealed that the NPP is preparing a mechanism to avoid internal competition for preferential votes among its candidates, though it will not interfere with the electoral process, ensuring that those elected by the people through preferential votes enter Parliament.
Dr. Abeysinghe highlighted that the NPP is including more female candidates and professionals in both its nomination and national lists.
He also clarified that while many individuals have expressed interest in contesting under the NPP banner, no new political parties or groups will be aligned with the NPP for the election.
