RTI Request on Exposing RCU Misusing Public Property

Has the RCU misused Government Properties and earned millions without paying any taxes to the State?


Is the RCU above all other Past Pupils Associations in SL?


Is it completely outside the Ministry controls and can do anything and everything it wishes?


Is the Principal just a helpless bystander - a mere ceremonial head  - and has absolutely no control over the RCU?

Royal College Principal’s WhatsApp Message Sparks Outrage Over English Standards

  ROYAL EMPOWERMENT OR ENGLISH DISASTER? PRINCIPAL’S SHOCKING WHATSAPP MESSAGE LEAVES PARENTS AND STUDENTS STUNNED! Is this really the standard of English we expect from the helm of Sri Lanka’s premier educational institution? A screenshot of a WhatsApp message allegedly sent by the Principal of Royal College; Athula Wijewardane has sent shockwaves through the school community, raising serious questions about the appointments being approved by the Ministry of Education. The text message, riddled with fundamental spelling errors and glaring grammatical flaws reads: > " Ecording to this ceruler , you must stop every College activity or training program, meeting or anything, including Sports, Club and Society. Don't pressure me to do wrong. Pls, understand we have big responsibility about everyone." >  “Ecording”? “Ceruler”? While the principal attempts to enforce administrative orders, the delivery has left students, teachers, and old boys utterly baffled. At a prest...
