The Left Unity panel of the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) on Tuesday won all the four central seats—president, vice president, general secretary and joint secretary. The All India Student's Association (AISA), the Students Federation of India (SFI), the Democratic Students Federation (DSF) and the All India Students Federation (AISF) formed a combined front – the United Left.

Aishe Ghosh of the SFI was elected as the president, Saket Moon of the DSF as the vice president, Satish Chandra Yadav of the AISA as the general secretary and Mohd Danish of the AISF as the joint secretary.

Voting for the JNUSU elections was held on September 6 and a total of six candidates contested for the president's position. The polling was held in two phases – from 9:30 am to 01:00 pm, and from 2:30 am to 5:30 pm on September 6.

The Akhil Bharatiya Vidhyarthi Parishad (ABVP), backed by the RSS also contested the elections for all the four posts, while the Congress-backed National Student Union of India (NSUI) contested for only the president's post.

The election results of the JNUSU were declared hours after the Delhi High Court removed the stay on release of results. The court had earlier put stay on declaration of results and restrained JNU administration from notifying the results.
