Reaping the harvest from free education? I studied at Moratuwa and the ragging was done in good spirits.

Everyone thinks like that. Zero ragging in the only way to stop ragging. Blaming politicians but abusing someone younger than you in whatever format sounds like double standards.

2nd year engineering should be playing with graphene or coding part time not ragging. These are same students who complain about politicians not doing their job right.

Give credit to the President for his continuous effort in building the roads. Likewise Jaffna International airport too so hassle free travel for residents and tourists alike!

Sincerely hope govt.'s outbursts will be put into action to eradicate ragging.

Excuse me, Ragging in any form is harassment and is illegal. Mild ragging, tagging in good spirits etc are misleading! Cheers to the brave authorities

We have to show them the Good spirit of the Law!

Shocking; the 2nd Yr Engineering Students will graduate and walk into important jobs in 3 yrs. Hope they don't carry the same mindset in public life.

Only mentally impaired and those with serious inferiority complexes resort to ragging. They should be publicly whipped and expelled. Upali Seneviratne USA

Dismiss one caught from university education. Next minute onwards there will be sensible undergraduates. Ragging is due to poor standard of education. Bad upbringing. Inferiority complex.
