The Supreme Court of Bangladesh has removed a legal obstacle, clearing the way for the Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU) election to proceed on September 9. The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court stayed a High Court order that had previously suspended the election until October 30.

The High Court’s initial ruling came after a writ petition was filed by a candidate challenging the legitimacy of another candidate’s nomination. However, the university’s legal counsel promptly appealed the decision, and the Supreme Court quickly issued the stay, ensuring the electoral process can continue without further delay.
