GUWAHATI, Sept 20: The Gauhati University Post Graduate Students’ Union (PGSU) polls are scheduled to be held on September 24 while the counting of the votes will take place on September 25. The last date of nomination withdrawal was September 19.

Though the university is a bastion of the All Assam Students’ Union (AASU), other major organisations in the fray are the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI), Satra Mukti Sangram Samiti (SMSS) and Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP). These unions are also fielding candidates for various posts. It was AASU which won most of the posts in last year’s election. According to the students, most of the major posts will see a three-cornered fight this year.
