After capturing the Panjab University (PU) by making a clean sweep in the students’ council polls, held on Wednesday, the Students’ Organisation of India (SOI) is eyeing Delhi University’s (DU) elections.
Student wing of Punjab’s ruling party Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), SOI made a record win on all four posts of PU Students’ Council by pushing the incumbent National Students Union of India (NSUI), the youth wing of the Congress party.

Complementing SOI’s presidential candidate Jasmeen Kang for winning with huge margins thereby creating history in university students’ polls, Sukhbir announced that Students’ Organisation of India (SOI) would contest students' union elections in the Delhi University also.
He said record victory of SOI-led alliance panel on all four posts of students’ council by defeating its opponents, especially incumbent NSUI have once again proved that youth of the State has its full faith in the policies and programs of Akali Dal.
Sukhbir also felicitated SOI coordinator Parambans Singh Bunty Romana for his efforts to lead the election campaign and instilling new zeal and passion in the young brigade of the party. He asked the student wing to take this success not as a victory but a chance to work for the welfare of students.
