Elections Commissioner Dayananda Dishanayake is upbeat about the successful conduct of a peaceful poll in the Eastern Province.

Certain groups attempted to make false allegations based on minor incidents, that there were malpractices. But the Elections Chief said they are happy that the people in the face of such a situation, had made an optimum contribution for the election of their representatives. He noted that keen enthusiasm displayed by the Easterners who did not have an opportunity to be partners in civil administration, to elect representatives, should earn accolades from all those who value democracy.

The ball is now in the UNP-SLMC court. What will they do? Will they go to courts and challenge the Elections?

This is called institutional racism. From ordinary policeman to the Supreme court the racism is rife and carefully orchestrated.
