Demanding a review of the Lyngdoh Committee Recommendations for students’ union elections, the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union took out a protest in front of the Supreme Court here on Wednesday.

“We submitted a memorandum to the public relations office, we could not meet the Chief Justice. Right from 2008 onwards, when the Supreme Court stayed the JNUSU elections in the name of ‘non-compliance’ to Lyngdoh Committee Recommendations (LCR), the JNU student community has been engaged in a protracted battle – legal as well as political – for the restoration of the JNUSU Constitution against the arbitrary imposition of LCR,” said JNUSU president Akbar Chawdhary.
