The Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) Central Committee held a special meeting yesterday evening that went on till late last night.
Speaking at the meeting President Maithripala Sirisena asked those present to brace themselves for the Local Government and Provincial Council elections, it is learnt.
The President reportedly told the Central Committee that though the government had come up with the 20th Amendment to the Constitution to postpone the provincial council elections due this year, it all comes down to the determination by the Supreme Court.
Therefore, he said the party should be ready and waiting for elections to both the local authorities and the provincial councils to be called at any time.
