(Lanka-e-News -10.Jan.2016, 11.15PM) The principal of Royal College, Colombo who was conducting a class on the sly without the knowledge of the education ministry was caught red handed , and the minister of education Akila Viraj Kariyawasam has taken action against him immediately.
In the super grade schools including Royal College , classes comprising 40 children each have been commenced separately for admission of grade five students who secure the highest marks at the scholarship exam to grade six. The Royal College principal on the other hand has conducted separate classes under this pretext on the sly to admit 40 other students , and he had not informed the education ministry of that. Moreover he had collected prohibitive fees to admit students to that class.
When this came to light , the education minister had instructed that students who are successful at the grade 5 scholarship exam be admitted to that class. Accordingly , 40 students who secured places at Ananda College and not Royal College will secure places at Royal College , and those who obtained lower marks will secure places at Ananda College to fill the 40 vacancies arising at Ananda College. As this chain extends to the lowest classes , 40 students who did not get a super grade school will now secure places in a super grade school.
The delinquent principal of Royal College has been immediately transferred out , based on reports. May we recall Lanka e news during the last regime made a number of unsavory exposures about this crooked and corrupt principal. Through his colossal illicit earnings , he had become an owner of 5 super luxury mansions in Colombo, accordiing to reports. Every such mansion has a swimming pool, it is learnt .

This person is doing this not only in grade 6. I know amount of money taken by him and his subordinates whiten admitting children to school. There was a lady deputy principal work along with this one and collected millions of rupees. Now is the time you pay back. Upali Gunesekera is the worst Principal Royal had. Well done Minister Akila.
