Brave and intelligent lads. It was brain vs brawn. What more can you expect from Grade 8 and OL passed men in uniform.

Wonderful boys! Are they protesting against private channeling? Because I see something like "Nidahas Saukkiya"

Unchikun Thursday, 23 June 2016 09:42 PM

Sorry! Some call these men in uniform "Rana Viruwas".

Stupid Uni. fellows just wasting their time and the others. This is how these fellows utilizing the free education system in SL. They could have approached in a different way to solve their problems without disturbing the public. Government has to take rigid decision on university student who engage in protesting and ragging the new comers.
