Delhi High Court Upholds Student Wing Participation in DUSU Polls Amid Violence Concerns
The Delhi High Court rejected a plea seeking to bar students affiliated with political-party wings like NSUI and ABVP from contesting the Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections, ruling that mere membership in student wings does not equate to association with political parties, thus not violating Lyngdoh Committee guidelines. The court emphasized preventing political interference and ensuring free, fair polls. Amid allegations of violence, vandalism, and misuse of campaign norms, the court warned it might halt vote counting or abandon elections if misconduct persists, seeking reports from authorities on preventive actions.
