Ravenshaw University Closed Sine Die Following Students Unrest

Cuttack: Ravenshaw University was closed sine die following students unrest on Tuesday.

The authorities of the university have asked the students to vacate the campus and hostel by 10 am on Wednesday.

The students under the aegis of Ravenshaw Chhatra Kriyanusthan Committee were opposing the exorbitant hike in fee and the arbitrary decision taken by the university authorities to vacate the hostels by May 28 for carrying out renovation work.

They were also demanding immediate withdrawal of the university authorities’ decision to introduce compulsory meals for hostel inmates and re-introduction of previous instant examination system for final-year students.
