Delhi High Court Upholds Student Wing Participation, Warns on DUSU Poll Violence
The Delhi High Court rejected a petition challenging the participation of candidates affiliated with student wings of political parties like NSUI and ABVP in the upcoming Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections, ruling this does not violate the Lyngdoh Committee guidelines. However, the court expressed serious concern over violence, vandalism, and violations during the campaign, warning it may halt vote counting or postpone results if authorities fail to act. Reports from Delhi University, police, and government on measures taken were ordered by Friday.
