Ali to take Azwer’s place

The United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) has decided to appoint All Ceylon Muslim Congress (ACMC) Eastern Provincial Councillor Amir Ali to parliament through the national list to fill the vacancy created by A.H.M. Azwer’s resignation.

He was one of the three councillors who decided to act independently in the Eastern Provincial Council recently.

Mr. Ali was a former Disaster Management Minister and had resigned from parliament. (Ranjan Kasturi)
