A Special Task Force (STF) soldier stands guard as supporters of Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) and of former secretary to the Ministry of Defence and presidential candidate Gotabhaya Rajapaksa gather, during a presidential election campaign rally in Bandaragama on the outskirts of Colombo on November 3, 2019. Sri Lanka's election commission chief on November 3 backed down from plans to censor a state-owned TV station following criticism that his actions were supporting the main opposition candidate at this month's presidential polls.

(AFP) - Sri Lanka's new president is set to dissolve parliament shortly and call snap a legislative election six months ahead of schedule, a state-run newspaper said Sunday.
