Member of Election Commission P. M. S. Charles resigned from her post while Chairman of the commission Nimal Pumchihewa is also expected to follow suit, a spokesman from the President's office said.

Sources said the President had received Ms. Charles's letter of resignation.

The development comes after the constitutional council decided to call for applications from potential members to independent commissions. (Yohan Perera)
