#assam: The Gauhati University Post Graduate Students’ Union (PGSU) Election 2026–27 is scheduled for September 30, with vote counting set to begin on October 1. The nomination and withdrawal process concluded on September 24, following the university’s official election schedule.
Amid the ongoing election process, a video circulating on social media has drawn attention to the General Secretary (GS) post, with the post claiming that an ABVP-backed candidate is the sole contender for the position. Students are seen questioning the election process in the footage. The claim of the candidate being uncontested should be understood in the context of the nomination process and the final list issued by the university.
The development comes a year after the 2025–26 PGSU polls, in which an ABVP-backed candidate won the General Secretary post after a contested election.
With polling scheduled for September 30, attention now remains on the final candidate list and how the university’s electoral process unfolds.
