Six new provincial governors have been sworn-in before President Gotabaya Rajapaksa a short while ago, the President’s Media Division (PMD) said.

The newly appointed governs are as follows:

• Western Province – Dr. Seetha Arambepola
• Central Province – Lalith U. Gamage
• Uva Province – Raja Collure
• Southern Province – Dr. Willie Gamage
• North-Western Province – A.J.M. Muzammil

These appointments came after the Presidential Secretariat informed the former governors to step down from their positions yesterday.
