Delhi HC to hear plea on Wednesday seeking stay on DUSU elections over alleged Lyngdoh norm violations

  • On Thursday, the Delhi High Court prohibited all victory processions following the Delhi University Students' Union election results, applying the ban to roads, university campuses, and hostels.
  • Campaign violations, including luxury car cavalcades and an alleged assault on a teacher, prompted Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia to act; the bench noted such activities create a "sense of terror, fear, hegemony."
  • Delhi Police reported impounding 49 vehicles, issuing more than 5,400 challans, and arresting four individuals related to poll violations. The court observed, "There can be no doubt of frequent and recurring violations occurring."
  • The bench issued notices to all 140 candidates contesting the DUSU elections, seeking responses on why they should not face "exemplary electoral damages" for alleged violations.
  • Authorities must now ensure strict compliance with Lyngdoh Committee recommendations and judicial orders, with the court directing student organizations to apprise all candidates of these mandates immediately.
