BJP's student wing Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad swept Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections on Saturday, winning posts of President, Vice-President,Secretary and Joint Secretary defeating Congress-affiliated National Students' Union of India (NSUI).
AAP's student wing Chhatra Yuva Sangharsh Samiti (CYSS) participated in the student polls for the first time. The votes split between CYSS and NSUI seem to have given ABVP an edge in the polls.
