Summary:
Mumbai: Students with academic arrears (backlogs in clearing subjects) or aged above 25 will not be eligible to contest the much-awaited students' council elections that are making a comeback after 25 years. We will, however, ensure that candidates have some academic calibre, by not allowing students with a backlog to contest," said the official. The four representatives from each college will then elect four representatives to the university's students' council. We do not hear about violence now, therefore it is not necessary that students' elections will give rise to violence. Rohit Chandode, Mumbai secretary of ABVP, said rules not having outsiders will affect organisations that do not have students as members..
