It is reported that Rajarata University lecturers held a silent protest against the government’s unfair tax policy and the bad decisions made to the university system.
The teachers of Mihintalea Rajarata University engaged in a silent demonstration in front of the university today (14) in protest against the arbitrary tax policies taken by the government and the bad decisions made to the university system.
The President of Rajarata University Teachers’ Association, Dr. Dharmasiri Dissanayake, states that due to the large number of university teachers leaving the country, it has become impossible to maintain the ratio between teachers and students properly, and due to this, the quality of education in universities has decreased.
He mentioned that after the introduction of the unfair tax policy, the brain drain in the country has accelerated and this has affected not only the university but also all other fields.
