Sri Lankan President’s Party Poised For Major Win In Snap Elections

Sri Lanka’s new President Anura Kumara Dissanayake’s party, the National People’s Power (NPP), is set for a landslide victory in snap parliamentary elections, securing 63% of the vote with over half of ballots counted. The NPP, which previously held just three seats, leads in nearly every constituency. Dissanayake aims to combat corruption and restore stability after the nation’s economic crisis.
