The Delhi University Teachers’ Association elections are scheduled for today, 4 September 2025 for the term 2025–2027. Voting will take place at the Arts Faculty Building and Satyakam Bhawan, North Campus, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, with vote counting starting the same evening.
Each college was allotted to one of the two venues, and the list for the same was released on 2 September 2025. For example, Gargi, Hindu, and Hansraj have been assigned to the Arts Faculty, while Ramjas and Stephens are assigned to Satyakam Bhawan. This is done to maintain order and avoid crowding. The list also specifies the room and booth numbers, along with a special provision for computer-assisted voting stations designed for specially abled teachers. These centres were chosen because of their huge capacity, as they can handle thousands of faculty voters in a single day.
The DUTA elections are a medium for faculty members to elect their leaders for a specific term, typically spanning two years. The leadership includes a president and 15 members of the Executive Committee. Membership (paid subscription) in the DUTA is mandatory to vote, along with timely registration before 12 August 2025.
The guidelines list specific categories of faculty who can participate. Mobile phones are strictly prohibited, and only election officials, polling agents, and voters of that booth are allowed inside. In addition, canvassing in and around these locations is strictly prohibited. Posters, banners, and handbills are also banned. The approach roads and areas near polling booths are also strictly no-campaign zones. There can be no campaigning within 200-meters of the polling premises. Delhi University’s security and Delhi Police will be present at booths and counting centres to ensure discipline. Any violation (e.g. disorderly conduct, canvassing, bringing in unauthorised material) can lead to the disqualification of the candidate or expulsion of the voter. The results are also scheduled to be announced this evening.
