Students not exposed to sexual culture: Army
The Higher Education Ministry and the Minneriya Infantry Training Centre yesterday denied Inter University Students Federation (IUSF) allegations that participants in the leadership training programme were exposed to sexually explicit material at the Minneriya Centre on June 4.
Minneriya Infantry Training Centre Commandant Asoka Amunugama said none of the students was exposed to such material and added that the misleading rumours were connected to a beauty culture programme, which was conducted for three hours as part of the personal grooming course.
“The beauty culture programme was conducted by a recognized private institution in Colombo and the three-hour programme consisted of several topics including personal confidence development, beauty culture tips, public speaking and personal grooming. The programme ended with a demonstration of beauty culture tips for the participating girls,” Brigadier Amunugama said explaining the course contents of the programme.
“There are some 625 girls undergoing the training programme at this centre and as the authority responsible for these students, we can ensure that no such incidents have taken place neither will it be so in the future,” he added.
However, the IUSF insisted that the beauty culture programme held on July 4 had contained sexually explicit materials and added that it was being strongly criticized by parents as well as students.

IUSF is a JVP organisation created to interconnect student unions established by JVP within each university. The objective of these unions are not to promote the welfare of the students and further their tertiary education but to further the political ambitions of JVP to create unrest and anarchy in SL on bogus grounds. It has disrupted the education of these students.
The JVP is a pariah political party that should be condemned and committed to the dustbin. They are rubbish that need to be burned.
They are behind ‘ragging’ in order to subjugate the ‘freshers’ to the JVP will by brainwashing them with their torture and punishment. ‘Ragging’ is outlawed by an Act of Parliament. Why is this Act not enforced and the JVP culprits imprisoned? They have infiltrated the the universities around the country. They are professional JVP saboteurs who are hell-bent on disrupting student education. These JVP men and women should be weeded out and the full force of the law applied to them and the JVP.
