Colombo, August 29 (Daily Mirror) - Indian National Security Advisor Ajit Kumar Doval arrived in Sri Lanka today. He is tipped to meet several Presidential candidates, including President Ranil Wickremesinghe and Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) candidate Sajith Premadasa.

Earlier during the day, he met former Sri Lankan High Commissioner to India Milinda Moragoda who presented him with a copy of the Pathfinder Indo-Lanka Physical Connectivity Report.
