The voting for the 10 seats of the University of Mumbai (MU) senate's graduate constituency was conducted at 38 centres and 64 booths across the city and Konkan region after the Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to halt the elections.

The Special Leave Petition (SLP), filed by the city-based lawyer Siddharth Ingle against the Bombay High Court's (HC) refusal to stay elections, came up for hearing in the afternoon even as the voting process had already been underway since the morning. Since the substantial part of the voting was over, the court didn't see any point in intervening in the issue and asked the petitioner if they wanted to withdraw their plea, which they did.
