Joint Efforts by SFI and AISA
In addition to the NSUI and ABVP, the Students’ Federation of India (SFI) and the All India Students’ Association (AISA) have also announced their candidate list for the DUSU elections. For the first time, SFI and AISA are contesting the elections jointly. This alliance could add an interesting dynamic to the election. Both organizations are known for their strong left-wing student activism.
NSUI remains focused on its strategy and candidates. While the joint efforts by SFI and AISA could potentially shift votes away from the ABVP. This might make the race more competitive.
Election Timeline and Key Dates

- Rishabh Choudhary for President
- Bhanu Pratap Singh for Vice-President
