New Delhi: Just days before India became independent, Delhi University was considering an idea that would eventually pave the way for one of the country's most prominent platforms for student representation - a student union.
The Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) traces its origins to August 6, 1947, when the university first considered a proposal to create a representative body for its students, just days before India awoke to "life and freedom" at the the stroke of the midnight.
