}}Wasala Bandaranayake Herat Mudiyanse Ralahamillage Tikiri Banda Poholiyadde, {{post-nominals|country=GBR|size=100%|commas=on|MBE|JP}} (10 July 1890 - 1956), commonly known as T. B. Poholiyadde Dissawa , was a Ceylonese colonial-era headman and politician.[1]

Poholiyadde was educated at Trinity College, Kandy.[2]

In 1947 Poholiyadde was elected to the Parliament of Ceylon at the 1st parliamentary election, in the Horowpothana electorate, representing the United National Party. He secured 44% of the total vote, defeating the Lanka Sama Samaja Party candidate, P. M. K. Tennakoon, by 2,179 votes.[3]

He was re-elected at the 2nd parliamentary elections in 1952, winning by 1,510 votes over Tennakoon, receiving 4,766 votes (48% of the total vote).[4]

He was awarded the honorary title of Dissawa, appointed Justice of the Peace and in the 1953 New Year Honours Poholiyadde was appointed as a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) Civil Division.[5]

Poholiyadde died in 1956, at the age of 66, following the dissolution of parliament and before nominations were called. He was successfully replaced by E. L. B. Hurulle.[6]
