Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) polls concluded on Friday with a voter turnout of 40.46 percent, according to official figures. The Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and the National Students Union of India (NSUI) faced off in a tight race for the top posts. The ABVP claimed a clean sweep in several college elections, securing victories in the Shri Ram College of Commerce, while the NSUI emerged victorious in the vice-presidential position.
The election saw heightened concern over student issues such as affordable accommodation, hostel functionality, and commuting costs. The Delhi High Court subsequently issued a ban on victory processions and issued a set of directives to the student groups and candidates, citing violations of the Lyngdoh Committee recommendations during the election process.
