What happened: Jantar Mantar agitation leads to DUSU election outreach plans
Student groups that led the 36-day Jantar Mantar agitation over the NEET paper-leak case plan to shift campaigning from Jantar Mantar to Delhi University campuses when the new academic session starts.
Student leaders say the visibility and political momentum gained during Jantar Mantar will guide election outreach for the Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections.
The DUSU election schedule is reported to be 6–8 weeks after the academic session begins, following Lyngdoh Committee guidelines for university student union elections.
Background and earlier positions: protest logistics and differing participation
During the Jantar Mantar agitation, multiple student organisations set up tents and help desks at the protest site.
