Students of the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) in Hyderabad have strongly criticised the administration’s decision to conduct student union elections for 2025-26 without a student-led commission. The outgoing union argued that the move violates the Lyngdoh Committee guidelines and the university’s own constitution, which mandate student representation in the election commission.
The University of Hyderabad has dissolved its Students’ Union for 2024–25 to comply with Lyngdoh Committee guidelines, which mandate annual elections within a specific timeframe. With the academic session for 2025–26 having begun on July 16, the university has scheduled the election process between September 11 and 20.
