Seizing the momentum of the July Uprising, Islami Chhatra Shibir has re-emerged in a striking new avatar and clinched an unprecedented victory in the Dhaka University Central Students' Union (DUCSU) elections. Although Chhatra Dal alleged irregularities late in the day, the voting concluded without major clashes. Chhatra Dal candidates complained of being barred from entering polling centres, while four panels traded accusations of breaching the electoral code of conduct. Chhatra Dal later protested at TSC after accusing the administration of pre-marked ballots in favour of two Shibir-backed candidates. Apart from Jagannath Hall, Chhatra Dal could not secure an advantage in any men’s hall either.
