University of Kerala DSU launches digital portal to redefine student governance

The Departments Students’ Union (DSU) 2025-26 of the University of Kerala has launched its official digital portal, aiming to redefine student governance through accountability. The website, https://kudsu.vercel.app, marks a shift towards transparency and technology-driven representation for the union, which serves students across 44 teaching and research departments.

The portal serves three key purposes: ensuring student-focused commitment by centralising activities, employing technology for governance, and promoting transparent governance. Key features of the portal include an 'anonymous complaint box' for reporting issues, a section for joining department-wise and interest-based communities, and a platform for submitting petitions, surveys, and digital campaigns.

All representations and petitions submitted by the DSU will be uploaded on the portal for the first time, enhancing transparency and visibility of the union's advocacy work. The DSU also plans to feature the profiles of all executive council members, along with photos, reports, and magazines documenting union activities throughout the year.

The portal is designed to make the union more responsive, open, and effective for the students, both on campus and those doing research.
