Message from the Patron
It gives me much pleasure to send a message to "Meezan" 2018 the annual publication of Sri Lanka Law College Law Students’ Muslim Majlis.
The publication of Meezan for 51 years demonstrates these broader interests and it is my earnest hope that such interests will continue over the years to enrich the minds of lawyers of the future.
In my mind, the Law Students’ Muslim Majlis over the year has done yoeman services for the Muslim Students in particular and all other Law Students in general.
Members of the Muslim Majlis, whilst pursuing their academic goals, must make a concerted effort to reach out to the common membership of the Sri Lanka Law College students population with a view to promote the true ideals of Islam, which promote co-existence and brotherhood among all human beings, irrespective of their race, religion, cast or linguistic barriers.
The President and the other members of the Executive Committee of the Majlis must be high despite the small numbers of students. I wish the Sri Lanka Law College Law Students’ Muslim Majlis all success.
P. Indira S. Samarasinghe, P.C. Principal Sri Lanka Law College Message from the Vice Patron
