The JNUSU polls, held on Tuesday, saw a 67 per cent turnout, slightly down from 70 per cent last year. The elections witnessed vibrant participation, with students beating drums, raising slogans and queuing at booths across the campus.

The contest, widely regarded as a reflection of ideological divides on campus, is primarily between the Left Unity, comprising the All India Students' Association (AISA), Students' Federation of India (SFI) and Democratic Students' Federation (DSF), and the RSS-affiliated ABVP.

The Election Committee said the final results are likely to be announced on Thursday night.
