IUSF has organized a protest rally to register their protest for not inviting them for the talk held with the President at the Presidential Secretariat yesterday. GMOA members and UGC representatives participated in this discussion.
Earlier, yesterday police obtained a court order preventing the protest demonstration by the students and its document was handed over to the students who tore it into pieces.
Despite the court order the march commenced at University of the Visual and Performing Arts, Colombo, and ended near the Presidential Secretariat.
When they tried to overturn the barricade, the police used water canon and tear gas to disperse them. As a result three students were hospitalized with injuries. Followed by this, four students who participated in the protest march were arrested yesterday.
