History
Kalmunai Pradeshiya Sabha was created in 1987 as part of the nationwide local government re-organisation. Kalmunai didn't have an elected local government for sporadic periods, this was due to various reasons. Aljazeera, the Asiafoundation and the Daily Mirror attribute this to civil war; Reuters and the US State Department attribute this to calls for election boycotts by the LTTE ; the Taipei Times and the BBC attribute this to area coming under LTTE control and the Tamilnet attribute it to The Sri Lankan government's suspension of all local government in the north and east of the country in 1983 using Emergency Regulations. Kalmunai was promoted to municipality in 2001.Election results
