Sri Lankan will elect a new Parliament, Prime Minister Ratnasiri Wickremanayake said  in Colombo on Feb 4.

'Parliamentary elections will be held soon. For any election we will have to create the suitable atmosphere. In this regard the emergency legislation would have to continue', he stated.


Parliamentary polls are due in April and ever since President Mahinda Rajapaksa won a second term in the Jan 26 ballot there has been speculation that he would advance the polls.
