if goverment will appoint an educated person such as professor rajive wijesinghe this problem will solve easily.this uneducated minister has no brain to solve problems of younger generation.

Nandimithra. Friday, 05 November 2010 02:06 PM

With Rajive it will be from frying pan to fire as he will say yes to everything from HE.

Yes Mr. Minister, These guys don't have brakes for their mouths. You are the best person to advise them with your past experience.

Minister Friday, 05 November 2010 03:16 PM

You mean to say, even after the handsome pay hike?

Tintin Friday, 05 November 2010 04:02 PM

A pin head who may have not seen the inside of a university. Sour grapes.

Siri Saturday, 06 November 2010 04:23 AM

Can't blame SB for his utterences. The people who voted him into this position need a brain scan. (Can u believe he is a minister and we pay his salary? What a wicked country!)

suwimal Saturday, 06 November 2010 06:28 AM

Students must be freed but Udul Pramaratne is not a student but their enemy acting as their friend.

Concerned Citizen Saturday, 06 November 2010 09:59 AM

Misusing his powers shamelessly!

KANDA UDARATA NILAME Saturday, 06 November 2010 06:51 PM

SB DISSA IS TRYING TO TALK !

Imran Hameed Friday, 05 November 2010 10:13 AM

Do not release these so called students...Its best to keep them locked in so that others students and the nation can can educate themselves and prosper

Micky Mouse Friday, 05 November 2010 09:33 AM

MR MINISTER , LET THEM STAY THERE FOR EVER

robinson Friday, 05 November 2010 09:40 AM

Yes. Mr. Minister, well said. Through your own experience, I guess. However your effort to bring the violence in universities is commendable.

shanthi Friday, 05 November 2010 09:40 AM

judiciary is judiciary , no one can influence the judges ,students must realize the meaning of education and revive on their own.

Micky Mouse Friday, 05 November 2010 09:45 AM

Foul mouth!

Democract Friday, 05 November 2010 09:58 AM

This Pole Walter has some stupid thing to say every time he opens his foul mouth. God save our universities!!!!

wasanthi Bandara Friday, 05 November 2010 10:04 AM

Look at the student in human way. listen to them. act as a minister..not a thug. Emphasis what is good or bad !! Be inelligent .. Otherwise never solve problems!!

Jonie Friday, 05 November 2010 10:10 AM

Hey, Mr. SB you need to decipline your own children first !

Select Friday, 05 November 2010 10:11 AM

SB should have understood this before he frame false charges if he is now suffering for his sins.

Calistus Jayatilleke Friday, 05 November 2010 09:32 AM

Yes, he should know better from practical experience, having served a jail term due to his loud mouth !

asoka abeywardena Friday, 05 November 2010 10:18 AM

Hasitha Friday, 05 November 2010 10:37 AM

OF COURSE.. THEY SHOULD REMAIN THERE FOREVER

Hasitha Friday, 05 November 2010 10:38 AM

U gotta be one of those students or a close person to them.. They deserve to be treated inhumanly !

Hasitha Friday, 05 November 2010 10:39 AM
