Scrutiny and withdrawal process
Dr Bachan Lal, the college’s Chief Election Officer, said the nomination papers will be examined on 26 September. The same date will also cover the withdrawal process and publication of the valid candidate list.
The current list therefore reflects submitted nominations, not the final confirmed line-up. The scrutiny and withdrawal stages will determine which candidates remain in the student union election.
The contest is expected to centre on the 3 groups represented in the presidential race, while the other positions have separate combinations of organisational and independent nominees. NSUI has entered only the secretary contest in the nominations reported so far.
