The Sri Lankan President, Maithripala Sirisena, has dissolved his country’s Parliament, 160 days after assuming office in January this year.
It was also announced on Friday night that the Parliamentary elections will be held on August 17, while the new Parliament is scheduled to meet on September 1.
The dissolution ends weeks of speculation after the President promised to dissolve Parliament 100 days after his victory in the January presidential election.
