Delhi University’s Students’ Union (DUSU) elections 2026 are scheduled for September 18, with counting on September 19. Multiple outlets report that the final candidate list is released after the withdrawal process, and the race for the top posts includes seven candidates for president and five for vice-president.
According to the reported panel announcements, ABVP, NSUI and an alliance of AISA–SFI are contesting, with each group fielding candidates for key positions. NDTV also highlights that there are NSUI-linked “rebel” contestants running for prominent posts, suggesting internal contestation within NSUI’s ranks. Times of India focuses on the overall number of candidates contesting for president and vice-president and provides the polling and counting dates, along with an updated candidate list and voting schedule.
While both sources align on the election timeline and the presence of major student groups, they differ in emphasis: one concentrates on the final tally of candidates for president and vice-president, while the other spotlights reported intra-party differences within NSUI contesting key roles.
