Ring finger for Wayamba
Elections Commissioner Dayananda Dissanayake has directed election staff to mark the ring finger of voters at the forthcoming Wayamba Provincial Council Election that falls on April 24, instead of the little finger as is normally done.

Accordingly voters will be asked to extend their left ring finger for ink to be applied. The reason for this has been that the ink applied on the little finger of most voters in the North Western Province at the April 2 Parliamentary Election has not yet been fully erased.

This is the first time that the ring finger will be marked at elections, instead of the little finger.
