The Congress party student wing National Students' Union of India (NSUI) has gone hammer and tongs to corner its arch rival RSS-affiliated ABVP over the alleged fake degree of newly appointed Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) president Ankiv Baisoya. NSUI held a massive protest at arts faculty north campus against varsity administration demanding proper legal action in case of alleged Baisoya's “fake” degree row.
NSUI had alleged that the DUSU president has furnished a fake degree of Thiruvalluvar University of Tamil Nadu to enable him to secure admission in MA Buddhist studies course in the Delhi University. NSUI claims that its unit in Tamil Nadu wrote a letter of enquiry to the University and received an affirmation that the degree of the DUSU President is “fake”. ABVP has categorically denied the allegation.
“The way ABVP has tried to capture DUSU by tampering the EVM, the way administration and BJP government has interfered in students democracy is Condemnable. According to the guidelines of Lyngdoh Committee NSUI demands Re-elections in DU with Ballot Paper. We also demands announcement of new election date and also immediate removal of the ABVP presidential candidate from DUSU”, said NSUI National President Fairoz Khan.
