JVP in action inside the universities again. What ever said and done previous government maintained discipline inside universities. I wonder whether the defeated government will be missed soon at this pace.

Clash in a university is a normal phenomenon, Oxford also a no exemption. But they have strict rules in place.

Simply between raggers and anti-raggers, plus in-case you dont know JVP have no say in university matters in recent years (since ANTHARE went ageist them)

If the minister concerned is unable to take effective action to control these trouble makers, chief nevertheless the university to warehouses .

These thugs should be removed from the universities for thier nasty ,sexual, uncivilized ragging without attending the lectures and studies to pass out as soon as possible. Quoting Oxford here is not appropriate .

IT IS BETTER TO BE BORN AS A FOOL THAN AN UNDERGRADUATE OF A STATE UNIVERSITY IN SIRILANKA.

Ban raging (hazing) altogether. Expel any student who is found of engaging in raging (hazing) totally.These kind of low grade activities are carried out by those with low self esteem psychos who need to compensate due to a short fall in their psychology or physiology

This has been part and parcel of Sadistic University students over the years and nobody will ever change it
