A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by Education Minister Akila Viraj Kariyawasam and Principal of the Trinity College, Kandy Andrew Fowler-Watt to admit the six-year-old boy, who was deprived of a school over rumours that he was HIV infected.

Education Minister’s Media Secretary Kalpa Gunarathne said the principal has also expressed his willingness to support the child’s expenses throughout his schooling. (Piyumi Fonseka)

It is a very noble deed by Trinity College and the Principal.It is a good eye opener for our fellow Sri Lankans, Where is our compassion and the sense of fair play?..A British Principal has shown us the compassionate way.Thank you Sir.
