The Congress-backed National Students Union of India (NSUI) sprang a surprise in this year’s Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) elections, bagging the posts of president and vice president. The RSS-affiliated Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) managed to claim the posts of the secretary and joint secretary, as the much-awaited results were announced on Wednesday at a community centre in Kingsway camp, a day after polling.

The results were a disappointment for ABVP, which has been dominating the students’ union for the last few years. NSUI managed to bag the president’s post for the first time since 2012.

This follows a protracted period of campaigning in the University campus, where one could see banner-laden cars blocking the roads, increased police presence and umpteen number of pamphlets strewn all around the campus in North Delhi.
