We see violent attitude of protestors rather than peaceful protests.They have already stopped work and violent protests are twoway trade union actions which has to be dealt with.

Ajith Rohana doesn’t say of violent behavior he talks about illegal assembly of protesters.

My employer couldn't pay the salary or meet the conditions I wanted. I didn't protest outside. I negotiated, and left when I got a better job. This 'free' education fallacy, I tell you!

They ask for the right thing at the wrong time. They waited so long for this wrong timing. How on earth their demands be met with the economy in shambles.
