It is to be mentionable that All India Democratic Students’ Organization (AIDSO) is a student organization in India. The AIDSO was formed on 28 December 1954 and is affiliated with the Socialist Unity Centre of India (Communist). The primary objective of the AIDSO is to organise student movements against the education policies of the central and state governments as well as other authorities concerned and for the "establishment of a scientific, secular, democratic education system".
In the late 50s, a large student movement formed in West Bengal against a seat restriction scheme. The AIDSO played a crucial role in this movement. In 1974, AIDSO held the Cuttack Conference where the organization emerged in a new form with an All India character, with representation from 8 states.
