The All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU), also referred to as the AJSU Party, is a state political party based in Jharkhand, India. The party was founded on 22 June 1986, modelled after the All Assam Students Union. The AJSU was the brain child of Nirmal Mahto. It was conceived from the struggles of the Jharkhand separate statehood movement and portrayed a more pragmatic and aggressive approach than its predecessors – the JMM and Jharkhand Party.
