Guru had initially been disqualified due to being a non-resident student, but the school's Appeals Board overturned this decision, allowing him to contest the election.
Despite the SRC arguing the disqualification was valid, the Vice Dean eventually directed that his name be included in the ballot.
Guru and his team will now lead the SRC for the 2024/25 academic year, following their victory in the contentious election.
