New Delhi: Radical
Left All India Students Association (AISA) bagged three of the
four posts in the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Union (JNUSU)
elections but lost the post of president to Students Federation of
India-JNU (SFI-JNU), it was announced Sunday.
"V. Lenin Kumar was declared as the president. He won by 200
votes, while Meenakshi Buragohain of AISA bagged the vice
president's seat by 916 votes. The posts of general secretary and
joint secretary too went to AISA. Shakeel Anjum won the general
secretary's post with 850 votes while Piyush Raj won the joint
secretary post by 250 votes," Abhishek Kumar, a former vice
president of AISA, told IANS.
Polling was held on Friday. Around 30 candidates were in the fray
for the posts of president, vice-president, general secretary and
joint secretary.
In the 2007 elections, AISA, associated with the Communist Party
of India-Marxist-Leninist Liberation had won all the four JNUSU
posts.
SFI-JNU is a breakaway group of the Communist Party of
India-Marxist's student wing.
