'tie-coat' eliticit clan cannot enter local universities that is why they opt to foreign universities.
The root cause of this clash is the government blind-eye on the NDT issue. There is a land to relocate NDT but no funds build it. On the other hand NDT is not really trying to move out.

The clashes in this uni during last few months were between NDT and NDT on ragging issues. This is the first Engineering - NDT clash for a reasonably long period.

Literacy does not require going to university. You can be considered literate if you can read. That means grade three and above.

You can't prevent this now. It is from the grass root. When children take their school flags and run behind it, there the problem starts. They are taught to work in groups at every stage.
If you can stop this school flags issue you can prevent at least the future generation

That is rather unfair. Quite a few academics and professionals and well off parents DO send their kids to the local universities. University does not mean its only for the downtrodden. Its for everyone who can get good marks. And its not fair to judge the majority of students who work hard at learning from the actions of a few.

We dont want the brilliant sons and daughters of farmers to have to pay their way through university. That is unfair and will only create an elite class and lots of dissatisfaction among youth. Let those who can pay, pay for their university. Give the others, on family income below a certain point scholarships. We want a just society as meant by the "Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka". Not a 100% capitalist nation.

Only a few idiots are left anyway. So dont worry too much. We just need to get them out of the education system. That is about the only place where they have clout now.

It is very saddening that our so called intelligent and educated youth resort to such beastly behaviour over trivial issues. Don't they have brains to realise that being beneficiaries of free university education, they have an obligation to act with restraint and a sense of responsibility?
Shame!

True Story.But find out just how many Sons and daughters of farmers are actually attending university. Most of those in university can afford a paid education.Therefore your idea is good. most of them got to uni on the back of private tution and even individual tution - @ the rate of over 5,000 Rs per month
I recently met a university student who is filthy rich-has his own vehicle, but still claims mahapola scholarship to pay his internet bill. Free education has been taken for granted.
Its OUR money. dont forget it.

In that case rotten apple is NDT in university of moratuwa. They are not undergraduate students but diploma student.They always make troubles in university of moratuwa.
Although it was proposed by a commission to relocate the NDT course somewhere else all of the governments didn't pay attention to that. Most of the undergraduates in University of Moratuwa don't need troubles. They don't even have politics in the uni

Chase NDT away from the univerisity to keep peace in Unit.

dont worry, clashes are ingrained part of university culture.

Moratuwa was the most peaceful university to the best of our knowledge. However, NDT students have created tis type of violance and interrupted the education of Engineering students. So I beleive the authorities should look at the entire history of violance and relocate the NDT students as quickly as possible and let the engineering students do their academic work in peace.

DT students once again try to hide their naked body from a clash in the university. They are the only reason for the impurity of the University of Moratuwa. Let us move towards that impurity taken off.

I strongly believe that the education reforms should be conducted where the "Free Education" system will be provided ONLY upto A/L and NOT beyond, period. University education MUST be fee based, where the individual , if required, can engage in temp employment to fund his/her education. Whatever is free is always for granted. Sadly this is a fact.

Point to think.......

These unruly folks must be caged like animals in the zoo otherwise we will never be able to enforce obedience in universities.

Good to open private universities, when something given free of charge, our guys do not know the value of it!

We have a high literacy rate? My foot! What do Sri Lankans mean by literacy? Is it only restricted to reading, writing and arithmetic? Why not give them honorary doctorates in thuggery and evict them from the universities.

This is what happens when the 'tie coat" eliticist group dont enter local universities but opt for foreign education

NDT(National DIPLOMA in Technology) should be shifted from the Engineering Faculty premises. It is no match to the engineering degree. Therefore an inferiority complex is among those who are following the diploma. They create trouble all the time. Ragging to an inhumane degree is something very common among the NDT students.

Violence in the name of the blessed Vesak! What a shame! Students should learn human values & good behaviour, in addition to academic subjects, so as to blossom into exemplary citizens.

@Ish, It is a mere minority that makes trouble. Please don't look down on the majority undergraduates who abide by the rules and regulations.

Another case to show what these cram-before-exam intellectuals are made up of. Really these people are wasting the money of the country. The poor people of this country toil and their money is used to 'educate' these hooligans. Clearly it's time to stop these "pin-panthi" and charge a reasonable fee for education.

The very lament attitude towards punishing those who rag others is the main issue.

University administration should develop a backbone first to bring the culprits to the books.

Anyone who disrupt the university education system should be severely be dealt with.

Please JVP, let them study freely. Everybody knows that you are doing theses things. Please do not hurt MotherLand. Otherwise all youths will abandon you as people already did last 3-4 elections. Please,, Please,,

This is not a bad idea, if they were to pay even a nominal amount, I'm sure they would not behave this way. The people in this country expect everything to be free, this is the result of socialism. Even if this is a minority, could not the majority of students stop this nonsense. Some of these folks are really social misfits who get pleasure out of ragging and destruction.
