Accordingly former Member of Parliament Milinda Moragoda and UNP’s stalwart A.J.M.Muzammil are to be nominated to contest under the UPFA and UNP tickets respectively.
At a previous General Election, Milinda Moragoda was elected to the Parliament from the UNP ticket having polled a high number of preferential votes. However he failed to enter the Parliament, during the last General Elections having polled a fewer amount of preferential votes, having contested under the UPFA.
