PARISĀ Elections

❖ Upholding the democratic spirit, the society conducts elections to elect representatives from among the students to the Core Committee of the society.

❖ An independent Election Commission consisting of faculty and student members, carries out the election procedure.

❖ The election procedure starts with the formal announcement of election schedule by the Election Commission of Parisā.

❖ The members then start campaigning for themselves.

❖ On the day of voting, all the students of Parisā gather in a general body meeting. Each candidate then addresses the gathering and appeals for vote.

❖ All the members then cast their vote through a secret ballot. The voting is done on the principle of One Person One Vote.

❖ This exercise helps the students in understanding the dynamics and working of elections in a democratic system.

❖ The elected members look after all the works and functioning of the Parisā.
