Jamia's long road to union polls: A fight that lasted 20 years and counting

In 1981-82, Jamia Millia Islamia inaugurated its first elected student union, setting a historical precedent. Unfortunately, union elections were halted in 1997 due to unrest and did not return until 2005. The union faced another dissolution in 2006 due to violence, prompting multiple court interventions. A 2012 Delhi High Court suggestion for favorable conditions yielded no results.
