On January 28, after a relentless struggle by JNUSU and the United student community, the JNU Administration was forced to release the first notification towards the conduct of JNUSU elections.
The circular came hours after JNUSU submitted a final memorandum to the JNU Administration and called for a complete University Strike on 30th January and a total non-cooperation movement with the administration.
According to Lyngdoh committee recommendations, the student union elections should be conducted within six to eight weeks from the commencement of the semester. The university requested the cooperation of all students in ensuring fair and orderly elections.
The last JNUSU elections took place more than four years ago in September 2019. The JNU Students’ Union (JNUSU) saw a sweep of votes in 2019 led by the unified front of Left student organisations Student Federation of India (SFI), All India Students Association (AISA), All India Students’ Federation (AISF), and Democratic Students’ Federation (DSF). Aishe Ghosh was elected as JNUSU president, defeating the RSS-affiliated Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, which was the erstwhile competitor.
