ABVP Files Nominations For DUSU Elections

The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has filed nomination papers for the Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections, which are scheduled to take place on September 18.

The ABVP has stepped up its outreach campaign across the university, with probable candidates Alok Attri, Ishu Maurya, Lakshya Raj Singh, Nitin Tanwar, Riya Chhawari, Tanya Mavi, and Yash Dabas filing their nomination papers.

The organisation has intensified its 'PG-to-PG' and 'class-to-class' outreach campaigns, under which its members are meeting students to understand their concerns and suggestions.

Student safety and accommodation have emerged as key issues for the organisation, particularly in the wake of the recent Satya Niketan building collapse.

The ABVP has demanded adequate and affordable hostel facilities, expediting the construction of new hostels, and strict implementation of safety standards in PGs and rented accommodations in areas with a high concentration of students.

Under its 'Aakhir Kab Tak?' campaign, the ABVP is conducting a survey of PG accommodations to identify concerns related to safety and basic facilities.

The organisation has highlighted initiatives it claims were undertaken by its members in the DUSU, including the installation of over 1,000 CCTV cameras, the Student Facility Centre, and the DUSU internship initiative.

The ABVP has also introduced U-Bus services and improvements in healthcare facilities as some of the issues taken up by the organisation.

The suggestions received during the outreach campaign will form the basis of ABVP's upcoming election manifesto.

The final candidates for the posts of president, vice-president, secretary, and joint secretary will be selected from among the probable candidates following scrutiny.

The ABVP's focus on student safety, hostels, and campus issues is likely to be a key factor in the upcoming DUSU elections.

The organisation's initiatives, such as the Pink Booth and Campus Kalakar, aim to provide a safe and supportive environment for students.

The DUSU elections are expected to be closely contested, with the ABVP facing competition from other student organisations.

The outcome of the elections will have a significant impact on the student community in Delhi University, with the winning organisation set to play a crucial role in shaping the university's policies and initiatives.

The ABVP's campaign has generated significant interest among students, with many expressing their support for the organisation's initiatives and demands.
