Constitutional Council To Meet Tomorrow At The Speaker's Residence Amidst Confusions Over Dissolution Of Parliament

The Constitutional Council will meet tommorrow at the Speaker's residence, under the patronage of former Speaker Karu Jayasuriya.

Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa, former Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa and other members of the council are scheduled to attend the meeting.

The meeting takes place in the wake of the Elections Commission's decision to hold the Parliamentary election on June 20.

With this decision, some legal experts including TNA MP M.A. Sumanthiran argue that the Gazette notification to dissolve Parliament on March 02 stands invalid.
