"Let us work together for the development and prosperity of the University burying all differences under the carpet" said by the Vice Chancellor of SEUSL at an event organized by the University community comprising academic, administrative, librarians, non-academic and other allied staff, held on 23-09-2018 held at the Auditorium of Faculty of Islamic and Arabic Studies, right after taking over the duties as the Vice Chancellor at the South Eastern University of Sri Lanka.

In the event presided over by Dr.A.Rameez, Senior Lecturer and Head, Department of Sociology, Vice Chancellor further said that " I sincerely believe that many people in the university took much trouble in the appointment of the VC purely because of their interest and attachment towards the University. I call upon them today if they are genuinely interested in the development of the university, let us work together regardless of previous differences. I encountered a lot of difficulties and challenges during my first term in the office, while I was doing everything perfectly and candidly. So, facing challenges are nothing new to me. However, I should emphasize here that I would strictly abide by the University Act and Circulars when discharging my duties and responsibilities as the Vice Chancellor and will not violate such Acts and Circulars under any circumstances. We should bear in mind that much of difficulty would not arise if every employee in the university works on his/her conscience and discharges their duties perfectly without poking their noses into others' affairs"

Dr.MM.Fazil, Head/Department of Political Science, also delivered a special address at the event. Meeting was concluded with the vote of thanks delivered by the acting Registrar of the university.
