NEW DELHI: The Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Union (JNUSU) elections are expected to take place in April, according to an official notification released on Tuesday.
The elections will be held six to eight weeks after the start of the PhD students' academic session, which began on March 3, as stated in the notification.
The election process will begin with the formation of a Student Election Committee, selected through University General Body Meetings (UGBM) in various schools. This committee will oversee the election and announce the official schedule.
Once the election dates are confirmed, candidates will begin their campaigns across the campus. One of the key events will be the presidential debate, during which candidates deliver fiery speeches to challenge their opponents and woo the voters. Currently, the JNUSU is led by a coalition of left-wing groups, including AISA, SFI, AISF, and the Ambedkarite BAPSA. In the last elections, held after a four-year break, AISA's Dhananya won the presidency. SFI's Avijit Ghosh became Vice President, BAPSA's Priyanshi Arya was elected General Secretary, and AISF's Mohd Sajid secured the Joint Secretary position.
