Dear students,

I know that you are going through a difficult period as all the rest in the country. I expect you to act sensibly  and bravely in a crisis like that. That  is what you need to to cultivate as future leaders in the country.
1.The restrictions imposed upon the students from Gampaha District is lifted and they will participate in group learning activity with the rest of the students. Please note that this informed decision is taken after considering all the factors and with the approval of health authorities.
2. It was decided all the lectures will be conducted in zoom according to the available time tables and will be uploaded to LMS. Practical and tutorial will be conducted either in zoom or as actual classes based on the requirements of the relevant department.  
3. Student movements will be restricted  except in movements related to academic activities for the basic needs, (They are not allowed to leave the hostel to go home over the weekend but they can go to Mahamodara for appointments.) The Faculty will not approve any kind of  long distance traveling including going home for weekends..
