Political sources say that all the political parties that supported Ranil Wickremesinghe in the last presidential election have decided to contest the next general election under the New Democratic Front under the gas cylinder symbol.
It is reported that the representatives who met yesterday at the Election Operations Office at Flower Road, Colombo reached this decision.
During the last presidential election, 34 parties and alliances had signed the “Can Sri Lanka” convention in support of Mr. Ranil Wickramasinghe and all of them are going to compete together in the general election.
