According to political sources, Rohini Kaviratne, who has been nominated by the Samagi Jana Balawegaya for the post of Deputy Speaker of Parliament, will be elected unopposed.
Hambantota District Parliamentarian Ajith Rajapaksa from the SLPP had previously stated that he would run for the post. If so, a vote will have to be taken for the post of Deputy Speaker.
However, no election will be held in Parliament today (17) and Rohini Kaviratne will be elected unopposed to the relevant post, sources said.
