Explanation

The correct sequence creates: 'Delhi University's top job falls vacant in May after the present vice chancellor retires and the teaching fraternity is keenly waiting to see who will take over from him.' This explains when the position becomes open (R), the reason (S), who's interested (P), and what they want to know (Q). The sequence R-S-P-Q tells the complete story.
