The latest update of the “Anura Meter” by Verité Research, a policy pledge tracking initiative, shows mixed progress on the key election promises made by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake.
According to the updated assessment, as of November 2025, 10 out of 30 selected major election promises have been fulfilled. A further 10 promises are currently in progress, while no progress has been recorded on nine promises. One promise has been classified as unsuccessful.
The “Anura Meter” tracks progress on 30 key pledges drawn from the president’s 2024 presidential election manifesto. The assessment includes developments up to the 2026 national budget. The analysis was completed prior to the impact of Cyclone Ditwah.
Researchers said the promises monitored were selected based on their high level of public interest and national importance. They span major policy areas including economic reform, governance, anti-corruption efforts, law and order, and social protection.
The initiative is maintained by Manthri.lk as part of efforts to improve transparency around the implementation of election promises. The Anura Meter follows earlier pledge-tracking projects such as the “Maithri Meter” and “Gota Meter,” which monitored the manifestos of former presidents Maithripala Sirisena and Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
Of the 30 promises currently tracked, seven were included based on public feedback. The platform has also invited the public to suggest additional promises they believe should be monitored.
Manthri.lk is Sri Lanka’s only parliamentary monitoring platform and is operated by Verité Research, one of the country’s largest independent research institutions. (Newswire)
