With relay hunger-strike by some students continuing at the Ravenshaw University, its authorities have warned that if it persisted, a re-look would have to be given to holding student union elections scheduled early next month.

"The campus is now witnessing student unrest at the drop of a hat and if such a situation prevails, it will be difficult to hold the elections," Vice-Chancellor Prof B C Tripathy said today when contacted.

He said, however, that should normalcy return to the campus then elections would be held as scheduled.

"We want peaceful and normal atmosphere inside the campus before holding the elections," Prof Tripathy said. Some students are holding relay dharnas in front of the VC's office for the last few days demanding admission of two students in the PG course.

The authorities have said the demand could not be met as the PG admission was closed and no more seats were available.
