DU Election 2024: Phase 1 Voting Ends

The Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) Election 2024–25 is currently being voted on. Students enrolled in day classes will vote between 8:30 am and 1 pm, while those enrolled in evening programs will vote between 3 pm and 7:30 pm, according to an official announcement from the institution.

The candidates put out by the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) include Aman Kapasiya for joint secretary, Bhanu Pratap Singh for vice president, Mitravinda Karanwal for secretary, and Rishabh Choudhary for president.

Ronak Khatri is running for president, Yash Nandal is running for vice president, Namrata Jeph (Meena) is running for secretary, and Lokesh Choudhary is running for joint secretary in the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI), the student wing of the Congress.

All India Students’ Association (AISA)’s Saavy Gupta and Ayush Mondal are contesting for President and Vice President posts and Students’ Federation of India (SFI) candidates Anamika K and Sneha Aggarwal are contesting for Secretary and Joint Secretary posts.

HC allowed voting, puts stay on counting

A day before the DUSU election 2024, the Delhi High Court permitted the university to proceed with the election but halted the vote counting, which was originally scheduled for Saturday, until all the defacement material was removed and public property was restored.

“This court directs that the elections process may proceed yet no counting of votes shall take place either on Delhi University (Students’ Union) elections or on college elections till this court is satisfied that posters, hoardings, graffiti, spray paints are removed and public property is restored,” the bench of Chief Justice-designate Manmohan and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela said.

The court directed the varsity to file a fresh status report and ensure that EVMs and ballot boxes to be used in elections are kept safe until further orders. It also directed the university to pay expenses incurred by the civic authorities in removing the defacement and added that the varsity might recover the amount from the candidates thereafter.
