Sri Lankans please note just learning to read & write does not make one eligible to call himself Educated. An educated person is a well read person, who can read and assimilate what he has read, and apply same in a practical way. India is a vast country, and do not think Lankans are just superior to them in every way.

Don't forget the Indian scholarships for students in India. Indian goverment is giving them free education and paying our students in food,shelter and books... What about that ? No one will talk about those.... ? Poor sri lankan attitude.

Is this to pay for the illegal fish they've been catching and for the future catches?

GOSL cuts the budgetary provisions for education portfolio in 2012 and Govt of India increases there assisstance to education in SL by Rs 2.5 billion. What does this say? does that mean our politicians dont value education anymore and they want only defence

India`s literacy rate is only 60-65%..not 74%..This is bit fishy ! how can they help us when 400 million indians are living under $1 per day ?
Act of care Sunday, 22 January 2012 08:59 PM
This help is great by India! lots of students will benefit from this financial help.

I find it comical india increases education 'aid' to sri lanka while india's literacy rates is 53%, half the population cant read. as opposed to the receipt country educational 'aid' at 97% literacy rate.

don't mistake, its an incentive for killing more indian fisherman

It is on demand, request; the Indian education is affordable with cultural protection!
kattu Sunday, 22 January 2012 12:22 PM
You are mistaken.. The current literacy rate of india as per 2011 census is 74%.
Sarath Sunday, 22 January 2012 11:36 AM
Well said! Sri Lankan government needs to spend more than what it does on education. Most schools in rural areas are just neglected and the children studying in them have less or no facilites. SL government should help our children than this rather allowing others to help us.
Nalaka Weerakody Sunday, 22 January 2012 10:51 AM
its a good move , GOSL should request for more scholorships specially to study medecine
Ceylonese Sunday, 22 January 2012 10:07 AM
That's abs. true. India must have a hidden agenda as usual.
naswaf Sunday, 22 January 2012 07:58 AM
MORE HELP...MORE MONEY ON SRI LANKA...BUT NO OUTCOME......WHY THIS???????????
Game Kolla Sunday, 22 January 2012 07:27 AM
Yes engineer...it's like sending refrigerators to Eskimos.
Imran Hussein Sunday, 22 January 2012 05:45 AM
India trying its best to kick Chinese out of SL. So they assist us like in the war time. Let them assist with financial aids and grant scholarships if they want, but we certainly dont want their 'by heart' education patterns without any practical knowledge.
