THE KwaZulu-Natal Department of Agriculture has squarely blamed the provincial Public Works Department for subjecting students at the state-owned Cedara College of Agriculture outside Pietermaritzburg to inhumane living conditions.
The Department of Agriculture has linked the appalling living conditions that have led to the students embarking on a strike action to its counterpart’s failure to complete the renovation of the residences on time.
The college late last month evicted students who were on strike complaining about being subjected to harsh living conditions.
