State committee statement on the DUSU elections.
SFI emerges as a rising force in DUSU over the past 3 years; wins College Union elections in Zakir Hussain Delhi College (Evening) and Delhi School of Social Work_
SFI-AISA alliance in DUSU has once again emerged as a leading force against the money-muscle politics of ABVP and NSUI. We thank the student community for displaying the trust in SFI and Left candidates in these elections. SFI candidate for Secretary, Abhinandana Pratyashi secured the highest votes of any left candidate in recent history, polling 9535 votes. Sohan Kumar, candidate for Vice President, secured formidable votes on his seat polling 4163 votes.
"Despite the challenges imposed by the Admin-ABVP nexus, the results show that the SFI-led Left has established itself as a viable third pole amongst students disenchanted by the politics of the dominant ABVP and NSUI," said Aishe Ghosh, SFI Delhi State Secretary.
Over the years, SFI has displayed consistent growth in the number of votes polled for its candidates. In 2023, Aditi Tyagi secured 5,151 votes, Sneha Aggarwal polled 8806 in 2024. This year, Abhinandana Pratyashi secured 9585 votes.
"I thank the thousands of students who chose to look beyond caste lines. I am confident in the coming days, more students will rally behind issue-based politics that SFI pledges to fight for in every campus," said Abhinandana Pratyashi, DUSU Secretary Candidate from SFI.
The victory of SFI candidates from Zakir Hussain College (E) and DSSW has been extraordinary this time. In the former, comrade Nazim Khan has won the seat of General Secretary while Comrade Mohammad Zaid has been elected as the Central Councillor. In DSSW SFI has secured victory in the posts of President, General Secretary and three executive councillors.
