New Delhi, Sep 13 : The ABVP was on Friday leading with huge margins for the posts of President and Vice-President in the Delhi University Students Union elections.

The RSS-affiliated ABVP had fielded Akshit Dahiya for the post of DUSU president, Pradeep Tanwar for vice-president, Yogit Rathee for general secretary and Shivangi Kherwal for joint secretary.

For the Secretary post, it was a close fight with the NSUI's Ashish Lamba.
