The students demand the removal of the lecture ban on several students and the suspension of the judiciary proceedings against the students accused of committing violence.The crisis of the Peradeniya University took new turns since the students forcibly removed a name board of a new hostel, which was named after the founder of the university. The students put up a name board of former Central Committee member of the Marxist People’s Liberation Front who was killed in the 1989 armed insurrection.Marxist People’s Liberation Front (JVP) led student union is powerful in Sri Lankan universities.<a href="http://www.colombopage.com/archive_07/October24170425SL.html" target="_blank">Source</a></blockquote>
