Police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse protesting university students near the University of Colombo, on Tuesday (March 07).

The protest march was organized by the Inter-University Students’ Federation (IUSF) based on several demands including the holding of local government elections and the repealing of the Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA).
