'''All Jharkhand Students Union''' or '''AJSU PARTY''' is a state political party of [[Jharkhand]] state, [[India]]. AJSU PARTY was founded on June 22, 1986, modelled after [[All Assam Students Union]]. The founders of AJSU were disillusioned with the previous political parties of Jharkhand and wanted more militant agitations.

AJSU organized general strikes and a campaign to boycott the [[Lok Sabha]] elections in 1989. By 1990 however, AJSU had taken a more pragmatic line and had candidates for the [[Bihar]] state assembly election on the [[Jharkhand Mukti Morcha]] symbol. Today, AJSU contests elections under its own name.

In the [[2004 Lok Sabha elections]] AJSU was allied with the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]]. Ahead of the [[Elections in Jharkhand|Jharkhand Legislative Assembly election, 2005]], AJSU broke with the BJP-led [[National Democratic Alliance (India)|NDA]] and formed an alliance with [[Lok Janshakti Party]].

Ahead of the [[2014 Jharkhand Legislative Assembly election]], AJSU again allied with the BJP-led [[National Democratic Alliance (India)|NDA]].{{citation needed|date=September 2020}} As results announced, AJSU won 5 seats while BJP won 37 seats in the state assembly securing the majority. AJSU party president [[Sudesh Mahto]] lost from his constituency Silli after representing it for nearly 15 years.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://ibnlive.in.com/news/jharkhand-elections-sudesh-mahto-loses-from-silli/519503-3-233.html |title=Archived copy |website=ibnlive.in.com |access-date=26 January 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20141223093633/http://ibnlive.in.com/news/jharkhand-elections-sudesh-mahto-loses-from-silli/519503-3-233.html |archive-date=23 December 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
