Panjab University (PU) is headed for another total shutdown. In a dramatic escalation this evening, the PU Bachao Morcha — backed by more than 50 student unions, farmers’ outfits, social groups and employee bodies — announced that the campus will observe a complete bandh on November 26 if the University Chancellor fails to officially notify the PU Senate election schedule by November 25 as per the pre-October 30 democratic structure.

The Morcha declared that, as on November 10 when PU witnessed the largest youth uprising in recent memory, no administrative, academic or other functioning will be allowed on the campus on November 26. Further course of action will be announced at the bandh protest rally to be held the same day.
