Nagananda Kodituwakku, who projected himself as an alternate candidate at the Presidential election, has not made the mandatory cash deposit to run for the election.

The deadline to make cash deposits expired last noon shutting Kodituwakku out of the Presidential election race.

However, Kodituwakku raised a whopping amount of campaign funds to run for the election, over the past few months, pledging that he would replace the current constitution with an entirely new one.

He said his proposed new constitution would be presented to the public at the next Presidential election.
