Chandigarh, Nov. 19 -- The standoff between Panjab University (PU) authorities and the Panjab University Bachao Morcha continued on Tuesday, as leaders failed to finalise a venue for their planned November 20 meeting. A round of talks held earlier between the university's constituted committee of five professors and student representatives of the morcha ended without a consensus, further deepening the impasse. According to the committee member Vishal Sharma from the Department of Forensic Science, the university had offered available options, but none aligned with the morcha's demand for a round-table setting. "We tried to convince the morcha members that no accommodation is available as per their request and all such venues are pre-booked. The arrangement they want simply isn't possible right now," Sharma said. The alternative venue proposed by the authorities - the Alumni Guest House in South Campus - has been rejected by student leaders, who argue it cannot accommodate the expected footfall of nearly 120 attendees. Student Front leader Raman said that the responsibility for finding a venue would now fall on the students if the administration failed to meet their demands. "If the authorities can't provide us what we asked for, we'll manage the arrangements ourselves," he added. Another SOPU leader added that they were coordinating with various organisations to ensure only two to three representatives from each group attend the meeting. The morcha is aiming to hold the meeting at 1 pm on November 20. Meanwhile, confusion continued over the postponement of end-semester examinations. Earlier, PU had deferred exams scheduled for November 18, 19 and 20, citing morcha's call to block exams unless long pending Senate election schedule is announced. Across PU and affiliated colleges, 6,694 morning and 6,991 evening students were slated to appear on November 18; 5,078 morning and 1,336 evening on November 19; and 258 morning and 1,104 evening on November 20. The controller of examinations confirmed that the postponed papers would be shifted to the end of the exam cycle....
