United National Front leader Patali Champika Ranawaka has criticized Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) leaders for sending their children to private universities while students in state universities face harassment due to policies of the JVP.
Speaking at a rally in Kandy on Sunday (1st), Ranawaka accused the JVP of promoting a culture of “ragging” in state universities, which has led to widespread fear among parents.
He argued that this situation forced many families to turn to private universities, a choice that JVP leaders themselves make for their children, leaving the children of ordinary citizens to endure violence and unrest in public universities.
