The Election Commission has denied receiving a letter from the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) with a call to hold local government polls without any further delay.
A commission official said on condition of anonymity that they had not received any such letter.
He also said that voters well know, although the SLPP seems to have forgotten, that non-allocation of funds by its regime has caused the indefinite postponement of the election.
Media quoted SLPP general secretary Sagara Kariyawasam as claiming to have sent a letter to election authorities.
