The Election Commission of Sri Lanka does not have the ability to make decisions regarding Dual Citizenship, Election Commission Chairman Nimal G. Punchihewa said.
Punchihewa said that the fact of being a dual citizen or a citizen is not mentioned in the nomination paper, so it is not the task of the Election Commission to search for it.
