[As per another report (at < https://www.thequint.com/news/politics/left-sweeps-jnusu-polls-abvp-second >):
For prez: LU: 1,506 votes / ABVP: 1042 / BAPSA: 935 For VP: LU: 1,876 / ABVP: 1,028 / BAPSA: 910 For GS: LU: 2082 / ABVP: 975 / BAPSA: 854 For JS: LU: 1,755 / ABVP: 920 / BAPSA: 862 So, all in all, the LU - an alliance of the AISA, affilcited with the CPI (ML)-Liberation, SFI, affiliated with the CPI (M) and DSF, a splinter from the SFI, have won all the four directly elected seats pretty comfortably. Quite notable is the performance of the Birsa Ambedkar Phule Students' Association (BAPSA), formed a mere three years ago. Though its performance in terms of the Councillor seats is rather dismal. The last year (2016), the LU had consisted of only the AISA and the SFI. It is the first time that the dominat AISA formed an alliance. The alliance had won all the four directly elected seats and 30 out of 31 of the Councillor seats (as compared to 13 this year). (See: < http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-news-india/jnusu-polls-left-unity-alliance-sweeps-jnu-defeating-abvp-3024761/ >.) The year before last (2015), The President's post had been won by Kanhayia Kumar, of the AISF (affiliated with the CPI). (Guess, the AISF had been in alliance with the SFI.) The AISA had won the VP and GS. The ABVP, the JS. It had also won 11 Councillor seats.

Students' Federation of India nominee Duggirala Srikrishna and Democratic Students' Federation's Shubhanshu Singh were elected general secretary and joint secretary , respectively , with big margins.While Left Unity swept the JNUSU polls, the results of which were announced early on Sunday , the rightwing ABVP put up a close fight till social science votes went overwhelmingly in Left's favour, pushing the RSS-backed organisation out of the race. “It was a straight fight between two ideologies. They (ABVP) gave us a good fight.The credit for the mandate goes to the students who still believe that democratic spaces should be saved. This is a victory for the ideology of social justice,“ said Geeta Kumari, the JNUSU president-elect. [...
