Under tight security and with a considerable strength of police personnel deployed in every college, the polls went on without any interruption.
?There are around one lakh voters in Delhi University and it’s colleges. ?
‘?The voter turnout was 42.3 percent for the morning polling session,’ said DS Rawat, Chief Election Officer, DUSU elections, 2014. The results will be declared on Saturday.

‘We saw the party struggling for students’ issues. That’s why this time there is an affinity for ABVP,’ said Anmol Chaudhary, a student of Ramjas College.
Another student of Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC), Shrestha said: ‘This time, students are
informed about the parties and the candidates contesting the election. But it cannot be denied that there is an ABVP wave ?in the campus.’
Last year, the ABVP bagged three seats and the post of secretary went to National Students’ Union of India (NSUI). This year, besides ABVP, the new player All India Students’ Association (AISA) which claims to be devoid of money and muscle power also found many voters.
‘I like the AISA because it is different from other parties. AISA members are actually working amongst students and are contesting the election without showing off their money power,’ said Nandini Yadav, student of Economics at Hindu College.
‘AISA is an alternative to dirty politics being practiced on the campus for so many years. Finally, we have a party who is actually here to work for the students,’ added a student of Kirori Mal College.
