October 27, Colombo (LNW): The Sri Lankan Postal Department has commenced the distribution of polling cards for the forthcoming parliamentary elections, Deputy Postmaster General Rajitha Ranasinghe announced.
Beginning today (27), postal workers will deliver these election notices to households across the country, with the campaign scheduled to continue through to 7 November.
While most districts will start receiving polling cards immediately, the Colombo District faces a temporary delay due to the department’s pending receipt of official election notices for that region.
The Postal Department has assured that, once the documents are received, distribution in Colombo will begin promptly to minimise any inconvenience.
To further support timely delivery, postal services will operate a special distribution day on November 03, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
This added effort aims to reach households nationwide and ensure voters are well-informed ahead of the election.
