The Minister of National Integration, Official Languages, Social Progress and Hindu Religious Affairs mentioned this responding to questions raised by journalists, yesterday (31).

Pointing out that the elections have not been declared as of yet, the Minister stated that although other parties hurried to name their candidate, there is no hurry for the UNP to do so.
