"JNU laal hai!" (JNU is red!) a message writ large and shouted with great zest, filed the air of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus on Saturday evening, after the alliance of the left parties in the campus swept all four seats in its students’ union (JNUSU) elections.
In a move that was seen as an ‘ideological compromise’, Communist Party of India (Marxist) affiliated Students' Federation of India (SFI) and All India Students' Association (AISA), the student wing of the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist), decided to form a ‘united front’ to fight the JNUSU elections.
The alliance won all the four posts that includes president, vice president, general secretary and joint secretary of JNUSU. The winners were Mohit K Pandey (president), Amal Pullarkkat (vice president), Satarupa Chakraborty (general secretary) and Tabrez Hasan (joint secretary).
