The gazette notification carries the names of the general election candidates of each political party who managed to secure seats in the Parliament from the 22 electoral districts.
Meanwhile, the Cabinet of Ministers of the Ninth Parliament of Sri Lanka will be sworn in after the EC publishes the extraordinary gazette notification containing the names of the elected parliamentarians and National List nominees.
According to government sources, the Cabinet is scheduled to take oaths on coming Friday (14) at the King’s Court of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy.
