Left Unity Sweeps JNUSU Elections 2025, Wins All Four Top Posts

The Left alliance has once again asserted its dominance at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), sweeping the Students' Union (JNUSU) elections 2025 by winning all four key positions - President, Vice President, General Secretary, and Joint Secretary.

After counting 5,590 votes, Left Unity's Aditi Mishra emerged victorious as President with 1,861 votes, defeating ABVP's Vikas Patel, who secured 1,447 votes - a margin of 414 votes.

In the Vice President race, K. Gopika of the Left won decisively with 2,966 votes, beating ABVP's Tanya Kumari, who received 1,730 votes, leading by a comfortable 1,236 votes.

For the General Secretary post, Sunil Yadav (Left) won narrowly with 1,915 votes, edging past Rajeshwar Kant Dubey (ABVP) by 74 votes. Meanwhile, Danish Ali (Left) secured the Joint Secretary position with 1,991 votes, defeating ABVP's Anuj Damara, who polled 1,762 votes, marking a margin of 229 votes.

This clean sweep marks a significant victory for the Left, which regained full control of the JNUSU after sharing positions with the RSS-affiliated ABVP in the 2024-25 elections. Last year, the Left had won three of the four top posts, while the ABVP had made a comeback after a decade by securing the Joint Secretary seat.

The 2025 results reaffirm JNU's reputation as a traditional Left bastion, with the alliance once again consolidating its stronghold on campus politics.
