Sri Lanka's newly elected president, Anura Kumara Dissanayake, has pledged to bring about change in the country and uphold democratic values. With a focus on tackling corruption and boosting the economy, the leftist leader has taken office at a critical time for the island nation. Despite the challenges ahead, Dissanayake's supporters have expressed optimism and hope for a better future under his leadership. Now, the president must work towards forming a new cabinet and securing parliamentary support, in order to fulfill his promises and steer the country towards stability and prosperity.
Anura Kumara Dissanayake, who was recently inaugurated as Sri Lanka's new President, has dissolved the country's Parliament and announced snap polls within one month. This move is part of Dissanayake's promise to bring about change in the country's long-standing political dynasties. The parliament dissolution will come into effect tonight and the new elections will be held on November 14. This decision comes only 11 months ahead of schedule as Dissanayake aims to fulfill his party's agenda of reforming the economic crisis that the country is currently facing.
