Inconsistent population and elevation figures

Latest comment: 5 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The infobox gives the population as 125,400 (2011) while the demographics section gives 158,561 (2012 census). The geography section gives the elevation as 500 m, but the cityscape section says 465 m.

Could someone with access to the sources check which figures are correct? NishanthaJayawardhana (talk) 19:46, 2 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
