According to the translation, "Front" in tamil was used instead of stating as "allience". (UPFA is a Allience not a Front according to the way it's written)


The decision taken to reject these nomination papers is unlawful the General Secretary Susil Premajayantha points out and therefore requests the Appeal Court to order the Election Commissioner Dayananda Dissanayaka to re-accept the nominations.
