The Election Commission has announced the results from eight polling centres of the Jagannath University Central Students’ Union (JnUCSU) election, showing a very close contest for the Vice President (VP) post.
As of 10:30am on Wednesday, the Shibir-backed panel “Odommo Jobiyan Oikya” is leading in all three top positions.
In the VP race, Shibir-backed candidate Riazul Islam is ahead with 810 votes, only six votes more than Chhatra Dal backed candidate AKM Rakib, who has 804 votes.
For the General Secretary (GS) post, Shibir candidate Abdul Alim Arif received 825 votes, while Chhatra Dal backed Khadijat ul Kobra got 422 votes.
In the Assistant General Secretary (AGS) race, Shibir candidate Masud Rana secured 799 votes, beating Chhatra Dal candidate Atiqur Rahman Tanzil, who received 690 votes.
Although the Chhatra Dal backed panel is behind in the top three posts and most editorial positions, it is leading in the Library Secretary and Cultural Secretary posts.
Some of its candidates are also doing well in the Executive Member races.
Vote counting was delayed for a long time due to technical problems.
Later, counting restarted using both manual and machine methods, but the process was not finished within the expected time.
After a five hour break, counting resumed again at around 12:45 am on Tuesday.
However, by 10:30am on Wednesday, results from only eight polling centres were announced.
Votes from the remaining 31 polling centres are still waiting to be counted.
The centres where results have been announced are Anthropology, Public Administration, Geography, Pharmacy, Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Microbiology, Finance, and Genetic Engineering.
