Chaos ensued on the day of elections in the graduate constituency for the University of Mumbai's Senate on Sunday.

In the absence of a letter of confirmation regarding voter registration from the varsity, voters had great difficulty finding out their polling centres and reaching there in time.

"MU did not inform the graduates that about whether they were eligible to vote in the senate elections or which booth they will be voting in. The varsity only sent SMSes to eligible voters with a link to check their voting centres which many could not check" said RTI activist Anil Galgali.

Voters also complained about the lack of directions regarding the voting procedure. "I wrote the preference numbers for candidates in Marathi but later got to know that it was supposed to be written in English. The varsity failed to give this direction earlier" said a voter.

Close to 38% of the registered graduate voters voted in the elections.
