{{short description|Electoral district of Sri Lanka}}
Bulathsinhala electoral district was an electoral district of Sri Lanka between March 1960 and February 1989.

The existing 160 mainly single-member electoral districts were replaced with 22 multi-member electoral districts.{{cite web|url=http://www.parliament.lk/en/members-of-parliament/the-system-of-elections-in-sri-lanka/the-electoral-system|title=The Electoral System|publisher=Parliament of Sri Lanka}} Bulathsinhala electoral district was replaced by the Kalutara multi-member electoral district at the 1989 general elections.
