Commissioner General of Elections Saman Sri Ratnayake stated that the delivery process, which commenced on April 16, is progressing as planned and will conclude on Tuesday, April 29.
He urged voters to ensure they receive their polling cards by the stipulated date to avoid any complications when casting their ballots.
