The 2026 budget of the Kandaketiya Pradeshiya Sabha, administered by the National People’s Power (NPP), was defeated for the second time this morning .The budget, re-submitted by Chairman Harsha Ratnayake without any revisions, received unanimous backing from all six NPP members in the council.
However, councillors representing other political parties voted collectively against it. Four members of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB), two from the Podujana Eksath Peramuna, two from the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP), one from the United National Party (UNP), and one member of the Sarvajana Balaya opposed the proposal.
With the opposing side securing a four-vote majority, the Kandaketiya Pradeshiya Sabha budget was once again defeated at its second reading.
