J’pura campus surrounded by Army like ‘uncleared area’ - SU
Srilankamirror) - The Sri Jayewardenepura University has now become almost an ‘uncleared area’, with two armoured cars and a large number of armed soldiers surrounding the premises, alleges president of the Students Union Ven. Kimbullewe Chandananda Thera.
He accuses the campus administration of labelling students as terrorists by deploying the Army, the STF and armoured cars.
Ven. Chandananda Thera describes the situation as a very serious one, and stressed that they would continue the already two-days-old sit-down protest until the removal of the vice chancellor and the lifting of a ban on student union activities.
