JNU Vote Count Nears Finish With Left Ahead for Top Posts, ABVP Edging Secretary Races

Final results are expected tonight following a 67% turnout.

Overview

  • Partial tallies show Left Unity’s Aditi Mishra leading for president and K. Gopika Babu ahead for vice-president.
  • ABVP’s Rajeshwar Kant Dubey and Anuj Damara hold slim leads for general secretary and joint secretary after roughly 4,340 votes were counted, with margins in the dozens.
  • About 1,500 ballots remain to be counted, and the JNUSU Election Committee says official results will be declared later on November 6.
  • This year, 9,043 students were eligible to vote for four central posts and 42 councillor seats across JNU.
  • Beyond the central panel, ABVP has claimed multiple councillor wins, while BAPSA says Komal Devi captured the School of Social Sciences councillor seat, ending the group’s 11-year absence from JNU councils.
