We have only held a reception to welcome the new students over which the administration held a disciplinary enquiry
The Kelaniya University students Union staged a styagraha in front of the university yesterday morning against what they called the arbitrary suspension of studentship of 13 students of the University.
The conveyor of the Union, Janaka Bandara who joined the protest said the suspension of the 13 students is baseless and arbitrary. “We have only held a reception to welcome the new students over which the administration held a disciplinary enquiry. Later on, only some of the students were released from the inquiry. Besides, studentship was suspended of 2 students who protested over the hostel issue,” he said.
He said that if the university administration does not withdraw the suspension of the 13 students they would be compelled to engage in a severe protest with the assistance of all the students’ unions, non academic staff and the university teachers.
