Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) elections will be conducted on September 5, 2008
Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections are back with a bang! The stage is all set for the biggest fight on campus. Although, the elections are likely to be held in about a month’s time, one can feel the buzz begin.
The DUSU elections are no longer held keeping in mind the welfare of the students but make up for the battlefield between the topmost political parties of the nation. It is now said that the elections take place between the Bhartiya Janta Party and the Congress Party. On one hand stands Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) backed by Bhartiya Janta Party and on the other hand stands the National Student’s Union of India (NSUI) backed by the Congress Party.
The Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections will be conducted on September 5, 2008 in 51 affiliated colleges of the varsity under new guidelines formed by the Supreme Court.
Tording to the code of conduct defined by the Supreme Court for DUSU elections this year, the expenditure limit for each candidate is Rs.5,000 as against Rs.10,000 last year.
The age limit for candidates has been fixed at 17 to 22 years at the undergraduate level and 25 years at the postgraduate level.
Students, who have contested earlier and who have previous criminal records, will not be allowed to contest the elections this year.
Further, no printed poster and banner will be allowed during campaigning. Candidates can only use hand-made posters and pamphlets.
