• Voting is set for September 18 with results on September 19, using EVMs for central posts and paper ballots for college posts under DU’s notified rules.
• ABVP says it drafted its platform from over 5,000 student inputs, promising subsidised health insurance, new hostels, free Wi‑Fi, accessibility audits, research support and better sports facilities.
• NSUI released a central manifesto and a separate women’s agenda, proposing fee rollback, menstrual leave, barrier‑free campuses, a ₹5,000 monthly allowance for students with disabilities and expanded safety measures while rejecting the NEP.
• The SFI–AISA alliance vows to fight fee hikes, seek elected Internal Complaints Committees and gender sensitisation cells, demand inclusion of women’s colleges in DUSU, and reverse NEP/FYUP changes by restoring core credits and entrance exams.
• Presidential contenders include ABVP’s Aryan Maan, NSUI’s Joslyn Nandita Choudhary and the SFI–AISA joint candidate Anjali, as an NSUI Delhi secretary resigned in protest over Choudhary’s selection without altering the slate.
