It was revealed in Parliament yesterday (23rd) that Minister of Health Rajitha Senaratna’s son Parliamentarian Chathura Senaratna had been a member of the committee appointed to make recommendations regarding the SAITM illegal degree awarding institution.
The JVP Parliamentarian Bimal Rathnayake revealed this information in Parliament and he added that Sarupa Samangi Manathunga (Passport No. N1537272), wife of Chathura Senaratna, has been admitted under registered number MF 121/F006MD77 to the 6th batch of the illegal degree awarding institution.
Speaking further Parliamentarian Bimal Rathnayake said, “We would like to know what connection student Samangi Manathunga has to the Parliamentarian. According to our knowledge she is his wife. He presents a report from a committee appointed to make recommendations about SAITM in which his wife studies. Who do you think we are? What do you think about the students movement in this country?”

Private universities can be find every countries. Sri Lankan Government and Parliament have responsibility to pass law for administration, examinations, admission of students, qualification of teachers of private universities. We do not consider one institution like SAITM. As far as I know, many private institutions in Sri Lanka offer law quality undergraduate degree (other than Medical) with affiliation with low level foreign universities. These institutions do not have qualified full-time teachers and some of their lecturers are working at state universities. If this country want to progress, private education, private school, private tuition, private transports and private healthcare should be well regulated.
