dc.description.abstract	Post independent Sri Lanka has experienced two main electoral systems as simple majority system and proportional system. Advantages as well as disadvantages could be identified in both the systems. Nevertheless there is a powerful criticism towards the weaknesses of the proportional system implemented in Sri Lanka at present. The discussion for a hybrid system including the advantages of both simple majority system and proportional system spread in various fields in Sri Lankan society during the past period. By analyzing the different view points on the present electoral system the paper tries to identify most appropriate electoral system for Sri Lanka.	en_US
