Issuing a Gazette extraordinary on Friday, the government renamed the 'Akbar town' election constituency in Mahara Pradeshiya Sabha as 'Enderamulla 01'.
In the gazette notification, Provincial Councils and Local Government Minister Faiszer Musthapha said the name ‘Akbar Town’ which appears as name of ward No:31 of No. 16 - Mahara Pradeshiya Sabha in No-02 Gampaha District would be renamed as 'Enderamulla 01'.
The name was changed amending the order published in Gazette extraordinary No.2006/44 of 17th February 2017.

Very good decision. Change every thing where the dirty politicians wanted their names on boards but used public money to build those.

Next, Alwis Town to Hendala 01 or Wattala 01? Crazy. Ministers must spend your time to develop the country and build harmony, instead of wasting time on vanity activities.

Any specific reason for the name change to Enderamulla 01 ?

When this new ward was renamed as Akbar Town, people did not like it as reported by one of the news papers. The reason was the existing Akbar Town closer to Ederamulla was well known drug peddling place and therefor, even the Muslims in Ederamulla disliked the name. Everyone wanted the Ederamulla to be named as Ederamulla back.
