However, the provision will only come into effect at the 12th General Convention. The NSU is holding the 11th General Convention from August 7 to 9 in the capital.

The student organization will now have three general secretaries among which two will be elected and one nominated. It will have one chairman and 13 vice chairs constituting seven from seven different provincial states, four from inclusive quota and two from nomination. RSS
