  • ABVP’s Aryan Maan won the presidency, with Kunal Chaudhary elected secretary and Deepika Jha joint secretary, while NSUI’s Rahul Jhansla secured the vice-president post.
  • Latest tallies reported by officials showed Maan defeating NSUI’s Joslyn Nandita Choudhary by over 16,000 votes, and Jhansla beating ABVP’s Govind Tanwar by nearly 9,000.
  • Turnout was 39.45% with more than 1.55 lakh votes cast across 52 centres and 195 booths, using EVMs for central posts and paper ballots for college unions.
  • The Delhi High Court barred victory processions and directed tight enforcement; Delhi Police deployed over 600 personnel with CCTV and drones as celebrations stayed muted.
  • NSUI alleged polling malpractice at multiple colleges and signalled it could seek legal remedies if irregularities are proven, a charge the ABVP rejected; the SFI–AISA alliance failed to win central posts.
