{{Main article|Electoral districts of Sri Lanka}}Currently there are three electoral districts in Central Province, Sri Lanka. The country's 1978 Constitution introduced a new proportional representation electoral system for electing members of Parliament from 1989 onwards. The existing single-member, double-member and triple-member districts were replaced with multi-member electoral districts, similar to the existing administrative districts of Sri Lanka.[1] The remaining districts by 1989 continues to be a polling division of the current multi-member electoral districts. 1947 to 1989 Electoral District | District | No. [2] | First Election (Est.) | Last Election (Ab.) | Duration | Elections | By-elections | Total Members [3] | Notes |
