Ending hooliganism on campus, 24X7 libraries: Issues that resonated with voters in DUSU polls

Ending hooliganism on campus, 24X7 libraries for students, safer campus for women were some of the issues that weighed on the minds of the students of Delhi University before voting in students' union polls Wednesday.

Shubham Chaudhary, a second-year law student, said students do not vote for parties, rather they vote on the basis of the candidates' reputation and what work he or she has done.

Prakhar Yadav, a student of BA (Hons) Hindi at Hansraj College, said, "There should be no use of muscle power and students should have access to their elected representatives. The parties had promised to get new hostels for students, but no new hostels have been constructed till now."
Mridul, a second-year law student said, "There should be 24X7 libraries for students. We do not even have fans in the hall. Issues like these should be taken up by the representatives."
Rahul, a student of Ramjas college, said, "The Delhi School Of Journalism, which charges exorbitant fees, does not even have proper facilities for students, who even protested inside the college for a couple of days. The elected representatives should take up the issue because students' future is at stake."
