Amid heightened security, students are actively participating in the Delhi University Students' Union elections. Over 600 police personnel, drones, and CCTV are deployed, ensuring a smooth voting process for more than 2.8 lakh eligible voters.
This year's election features three prominent student groups: ABVP backed by Aryan Maan, NSUI represented by Joslyn Nandita Choudhary, and Anjali, contesting for the SFI-AISA alliance. Notably, the campus remains clean, abiding by the Lyngdoh Committee's anti-defacement guidelines, marking a significant shift from previous years.
Judicial oversight has played a crucial role in curbing defacement and external interference, setting a new benchmark for campus elections. Students express hope that this 'clean and green' election paves the way for future improvements in university politics.
