Sri Lanka's Eastern Provincial Council (EPC) has run into crisis, reports the Island, as ruling party members are boycotting the sessions demanding postponement of the Northern PC polls until the replacement of the Governor and Chief Minister and restoration of the administrative structure.
Deputy Chairman of the Council, M.S. Subair clarified that:
"This decision by the members should not be misinterpreted as something against President Mahinda Rajapaksa or his government."
