The Students For Society (SFS) was founded in Panjab University, Chandigarh on 28 September 2010 as a students' discussion group for holding discussions on books and social issues,[5] on the 103rd birth anniversary of Bhagat Singh. It rejected the politics of muscle and money power by mainstream political parties in University.[6][7] It also rejected the politics of those who were trying to get votes by offering movie shows, dinners, trips and beauty parlour coupons.[8] SFS takes out its rallies on foot with singing of slogans with a Tambourine (Dafli[9][10])[11][12] while other parties took out rallies in cars.[13] Its rallies are joined by a considerable number of campus students while the SOI, PUSU and NSUI alliances had to call outsiders in violation of the Lyngdoh panel norms.[14][15]
