Four undergraduates of the Sabaragamuwa University who were engaged in a hunger strike have been admitted to the Balangoda Hospital this morning due to their deteriorating health condition, hospital sources said.

They started the fast three days ago to urge university authorities to withdraw their decision to cancel the studentship of five undergraduates.

Meanwhile a group of Sabaragamuwa University undergraduates carried out a protest campaign on the Colombo - Badulla road, obstructing traffic this morning, to express their support to the fasting students.(LP)
