Delhi University Students Union Originated from 1947 Proposal to Student Body
The Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) originated from a proposal on August 6, 1947, just before India's independence, to create a representative student body. The university's Executive Council approved forming a committee to draft its constitution and considered a small grant for initial expenses. Early years involved financial and administrative challenges, with efforts to achieve self-sufficiency. A new constitution in 1973 established a detailed administrative structure, and subscription fees have been revised over time. DUSU has since become a key platform for student representation and campus politics at Delhi University.
