The government was making every effort to postpone the Local Government elections as it was perturbed to learn that all surveys and intelligence reports have revealed that the National People’s Power (NPP) or the Compass would come on top at the LG polls, NPP leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake said yesterday.

He told a rally in Biyagama that all surveys conducted in the country and intelligence reports have revealed that the Compass would come on top at the LG polls.    He said the surveys have revealed that the Compass would win the most number of local government authorities in Hambantota District.


Dissanayake also said Compass has recorded over 80 per cent votes at mock votes taken at tuition classes in Gampaha, Kurunegala and Kegalle.
He said opposition political parties being scared of predictions have started to attack them continuously at daily press briefings.
