Kelaniya University temporarily closed

All Faculties of the Kelaniya University except the Medial Faculty were closed temporarily by the university administration yesterday morning. The decision was taken after a minor group of students agitated against a decision taken by the administration as a security measure in view of the security situation in the country.

The university administration in a media release said all residential students had been noticed to leave their halls of residence and this was only a temporary measure.

The decision was taken because a student group protested against the new search operations launched within the campus.
