DUSU Elections 2025: NSUI Presidential Candidate Alleges EVM Manipulation In DU Student Union Elections; Video

DUSU Elections 2025: The Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections are underway, with polling being conducted in two shifts: 8:30 AM to 1 PM for day colleges and 3 PM to 7:30 PM for evening colleges. Around 2.8 lakh students across 52 colleges are eligible to vote for key positions, including president, vice-president, secretary, and joint secretary, along with college-level representatives.

Allegations of EVM Tampering

NSUI presidential candidate Joslyn Nandita Choudhary has raised serious allegations of Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) tampering in multiple DU colleges. She claimed that blue ink markings, favouring ABVP candidates, were found on EVMs across campuses, from Hansraj College to Kirorimal College.

"Every EVM has blue ink marking the name of the candidate from the ABVP, from Hansraj College to Kirorimal College," she said in a video on X.

“Teachers are involved in these unfair practices. Despite my repeated protests, EVMs continue to show markings for ABVP candidates. One of my supporters has been assaulted since polling began. I have worked tirelessly throughout the year, but these conditions make it extremely difficult for ordinary students like me to contest fairly,” she added.
