The Delhi High Court on Friday disposed of a plea challenging a Delhi University (DU) notification that allegedly mandated a ₹1-lakh deposit for contesting the Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections, after the university clarified that no monetary deposit was required.

The August 8 notification had required candidates to execute a bond of ₹1 lakh to cover any defacement or damage caused by them or their supporters during the polls.
