When millions could be spent on Hambantota and the failed Indian Film gala, why cannot the necessary facilities be constructed for the Medical students. After all we need them more than Hambantota upgrade and placating the Indian film industry/tourists.

Name the first photo as "Courage". The DM photographer can get a gold medal from any photo contest. Perfectly taken.

This is very RUDE act by police.. Student's demand is reasonable.. Once MR ordered police not to be harsh on Student's protests.. Isn't it?
