The Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) will hold its May Day Rally at Gatambe Mahanama College Grounds, Disaster Management Minister Anura Priyadharshana Yapa said yesterday at a press conference.

The Disaster Management Minister also said that the SLFP rally would set a new precedent by using no polythene at all.

Meanwhile, Highways and Higher Education Minister Dilan Perera responding to a comment made by Bandula Gunawardena that two million supporters of the Joint Opposition would attend the Joint Opposition Rally at Galle Face Green said that there was nothing to worry about because the Galle Face Green could only hold up to 100, 000 people.
