The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad registered a major victory in the Delhi University Students' Union elections by securing three out of the four central panel posts, including president, secretary, and joint secretary. The post of vice president was won by an independent candidate, while the National Students' Union of India failed to win any seats in the central panel. Union Ministers and Bharatiya Janata Party leaders hailed the mandate as an endorsement of positive youth politics and national ideology among Gen Z voters. Newly elected ABVP representatives outlined their focus on student welfare, campus safety, and nationalism. Meanwhile, the Congress and NSUI raised concerns alleging irregularities and rigging during the election process. The bulletin examines the political significance of the student election outcome, the shifting trends among student voters, internal factionalism within student wings, and the nationwide youth outreach programmes led by key political leaders.

00:00And BJP hails ABVP's near clean sweep in the DU Student Union polls.
00:05Union Minister Kiran Rijiju says the verdict has exposed Congress's jhoot ki gunj.
00:11That's a big message coming in from Union Minister Kiran Rijiju, a big moment for the BJP as their student
00:16swing.
00:17ABVP has won three key posts in the Delhi University polls.
00:23Remember, NSUI has banked none of these posts.
00:25The Vice President post that has been won by an independent candidate.
00:30But Gen Z choosing ABVP that has now changed the narrative on the ground when it comes to chhatro ki
00:37gunj.
00:38Those were the exact slogans that were resounding after ABVP's big victory in the Delhi University polls.
00:48ABVP has won big.
00:50Union Minister Kiran Rijiju has hailed ABVP's performance in the Delhi University polls.
00:55congratulating all the winning candidates.
00:58Kiran Rijiju saying that ABVP has won three out of four seats in the DUSU elections.
01:04ABVP has won the posts of President, Joint Secretary and Secretary.
01:09Let's listen in to what he said.
01:22And then the European, which is a bigot and a bigot and a bigot and a bigot and a bigot
01:26and a bigot and a bigot and a bigot and a bigot and a bigot has won three out of
01:28four seats.
01:28. . . . . . . .
01:58And we cut across to my colleague Anmol Bali, who's been getting us all the voices from the ground.
02:03Anmol, big moment, especially how the BJP is celebrating the victory of ABVP,
02:08saying that the Gen Z has put out its verdict to where they stand.
02:16So, at one hand, we are seeing that Bharati Janata Party has also started celebrating
02:20for the victory of Akhil Bharati with Darthi Prishat.
02:22But on the other hand, ABVP has also started their celebration
02:26because this was a tough fight for the ABVP this time.
02:29Their margins have decreased.
02:30But on the other hand, we are seeing that Rahul Gandhi,
02:32who are saying that Chhatro ki Goonj, the Gen Z are with them.
02:36But on the other hand, ABVP and BJP are saying that Gen Z are with the nation.
02:41They are with the nation-first ideology.
02:43I'm joined by Dr. Virendra Swalanki and as well as the winners of the ABVP panel.
02:49So, Mr. Swalanki, what you have to say today,
02:51we have seen that Rahul Gandhi has called a Chhatro ki Goonj rally in Indor,
02:55your own hometown.
02:56So, what do you have to say on it?
02:57They say that Chhatro ki Goonj.
02:59And here in Delhi, the Gen Z ki Goonj will be seen in Indor.
03:02I think that today's message will be heard of the Chhatro Gen Z generation,
03:06who is with the Chhatro Gen Z generation.
03:07This Chhatro Ki Goonj is not the name of the Chhatro Gen Z generation.
03:09It is not the name of the Chhatro Gen Z generation.
03:11It is not the name of the Gen Z.
03:12The Gen Z is the whole country, who is with the Gen Z.
03:15I'm joined by Yash Dabas, the winner of the President's position.
03:19And this time, your margin was less.
03:20But still, you won the President's position.
03:23This was a very tough fight.
03:24We have seen that for the very first time.
03:25We have seen an SD candidate from the other side.
03:28The VP has also brought two records.
03:30So, what do you have to say on ABVP's victory?
03:33And on the other hand, Congress Party's narrative that Gen Z is with them?
03:37Gen Z is with them,
04:00So, what are the main issues you will be focusing in the panel?
04:07Because you are the only woman candidate in the panel.
04:10As a girl candidate,
04:11My main motive is women's safety.
04:14And I will ensure that in Delhi University,
04:16Every student can feel safe and secure.
04:19And the ones who come to the distance,
04:21The ones who come to the distance,
04:22Feel their home.
04:24So, these were the winning candidates from the ABVP.
04:27I'm also joined by Lakshara, the Joint Secretary.
04:30We have also seen a tough fight by the independent candidate
04:33on the Joint Secretary position.
04:34So, what do you have to say?
04:52So, these are all three winning candidates of Ramadakhil Bharti,
04:56Vidyarthi Parishad, those who have clearly shared their political thoughts
04:59on the Rahul Gandhi's political narrative,
05:02Chhatro Ki Goonj,
05:03And even, they have also talked about this time's little margin,
05:06Which led to their victory.
05:08But on the other hand,
05:09We are also seeing the National Student Union of India
05:11is also accusing the Delhi University and ABVP of rigging the elections.
05:15But, yeah, politics is now escalating.
05:17But on one hand, BJP has started congratulating the ABVP CAIDR,
05:21the APVP candidates, those who have won the election.
05:23But on the other hand, Congress Party and their student wing
05:26are accusing BJP, ABVP and Delhi University administration.
05:30We'll talk more about the rigging part.
05:32But before that, Anmol,
05:33you've been interacting with a lot of these students.
05:35What really went on the ground to lead to this victory?
05:39Reduced margin is one aspect of it.
05:41But after the students' protest,
05:43the narrative that panned out,
05:44it wasn't easy.
05:45And the NSUI may have also predicted a clear victory.
05:50But given the fact that they won nothing,
05:52ABVP with three plump posts,
05:53and one post of vice president
05:56having gone to an independent candidate,
05:58what does it speak of?
06:03This year, we have seen that NSUI hasn't won
06:05any one position in the panel.
06:07Last year, we have seen that NSUI has won vice president.
06:09And from last five to six years,
06:11we were seeing that around two to three positions
06:14were won by the ABVP
06:15and one or two positions were won by the NSUI.
06:17But this time, we have seen a zero by the NSUI
06:20in the central panel of Delhi University Students Union.
06:23But on the other hand,
06:24we are also seeing politics escalating on this issue.
06:26But this time, we have also seen
06:28a new trend in student politics
06:30where Dipanshu Shukhin,
06:31the VP candidate who has won the election
06:34as an independent for the very first time,
06:36we have seen that an independent candidate
06:38has won with record-breaking margins.
06:41So, clearly, which is showing that
06:42the trend in the student politics
06:44is now changing from one political outfit
06:47to they are now focusing on individual candidates also,
06:49like we have seen in Rajasthan also,
06:51that how after BJP and Congress,
06:53independent candidates became the third number
06:56in terms of winning the awards.
06:58And now, we are also seeing that
06:59independent candidates are also winning
07:01the student election,
07:02which clearly shows that
07:03how trends are changing, Svesha.
07:06Trends indeed are changing
07:08and a big moment,
07:08not just for the ABVP,
07:10but even the BJP,
07:11where the focus has primarily been on Gen Z,
07:14especially after the students' protests,
07:16after the resignation
07:17by Education Minister Dharmedra Pradhan,
07:19and how the BJP,
07:21as part of his strategy,
07:23is very carefully focusing on Gen Z.
07:26Because it is not just the BJP,
07:28but even the Congress,
07:29and by a notch,
07:30the focus has gone on Gen Z.
07:32And that is why we see
07:33more of these students' meet
07:35going on the ground,
07:37going to these universities,
07:38top leaders,
07:39Rahul Gandhi's campaign,
07:41Prime Minister Narendra Bodhi,
07:42who were seen in Ahmedabad
07:43and in Delhi,
07:45interacting with the students,
07:47interacting with Gen Z.
07:48So that has become
07:49a very important aspect now
07:51when it comes to
07:52the top political leaders
07:54and the top political parties.
07:55And now with the ABVP's victory,
07:58BJP going all out to celebrate.
08:07Anmol.
08:11As you know,
08:13we have seen that
08:14Congress Party and BJP
08:15both have started
08:16their outreach program
08:17after the neat
08:17UG paper leak issue.
08:19We have seen that
08:19Congress Party has launched
08:20their Chhatro Ki Goonj movement
08:22where we have seen that
08:23Rahul Gandhi interacted
08:24with the Gen Z
08:25and the young voters
08:26across India.
08:27And today,
08:28Rahul Gandhi is also
08:31in Indore.
08:32He is interacting
08:32with Gen Zs of Indore,
08:34of the Madhya Pradesh,
08:35and Amit Desh.
08:35We have seen that
08:36Delhi University
08:37Students' Union
08:38results are kind of
08:39surprise for the
08:40Congress Party
08:40and for the NSUIE.
08:42But on the other hand,
08:42we have also seen
08:43PM Modi has also
08:44started outreach program.
08:45He visited SRCC,
08:48Shriram College,
08:49the Delhi University.
08:49Then he visited
08:50in Gujarat.
08:51He interacted
08:52with the students.
08:53Even we have seen
08:53that PM Modi
08:54also visited
08:55at IIT Delhi
08:56and interacted
08:57with the Gen Z.
08:58And even we have seen
08:58that PM Modi
08:59has given
09:00Instagram first mantra
09:01to the BJP leaders
09:03to reach young voters,
09:05the voters which are
09:07in the Gen Z category
09:08which are between
09:09the 20 and 30 years old,
09:11around 17 to 30 years old.
09:13Clearly,
09:13we have seen
09:13that all political parties
09:15are now seeing Gen Z
09:16as a voter bloc
09:18and now they are all
09:19focusing.
09:20And ABVP's victory
09:21has kind of given
09:22arm shot to the
09:23Bharati Janta Party
09:24and in their narrative
09:25that Gen Z is with them,
09:26that Gen Z is looking
09:28at the nation first ideology.
09:29They are not looking
09:30at the Congress Party,
09:31but on the other hand
09:32the Congress Party
09:33is accusing the ABVP
09:35and the BJP
09:36of using their machinery
09:38and rigging the elections.
09:39So, we are seeing
09:40politics escalating
09:41on this issue
09:41but on the other hand
09:42celebration in BJP
09:43and ABVP camp.
09:44So, Isha.
09:45Oh, yes.
09:46And after the ABVP's victory,
09:48Chhatro Ki Gonj
09:49were the exact slogans
09:50that were heard
09:51resounding on the ground
09:53in a direct attack
09:55to the Congress
09:56and the NSUY
09:58over how the Gen Z
10:00is speaking
10:00and what their language,
10:02what their leanings
10:04are all about.
10:05Rahul Gandhi,
10:06you are saying,
10:06is also on the ground
10:08as part of one
10:09of these campaigns
10:10but do tell us
10:11if there's been
10:12any response
10:12from Rahul Gandhi
10:13from the Congress
10:14so far
10:15aside of these
10:17rigging allegations.
10:22We haven't seen
10:23any tweet
10:23or any post
10:25or any video
10:26by any Congress
10:28leader
10:28because currently
10:29all Syrian leaders
10:30of the Congress party
10:31they are all in Indore.
10:32They are leading
10:33an outreach campaign
10:34in Indore
10:35where they are
10:35interacting with
10:36the youth of Indore
10:36and this is now
10:37the very first time
10:38that we are seeing
10:38that Rahul Gandhi
10:39has called a movement
10:40like this
10:41Chhatro Ki Gonja
10:41the other cadre
10:42of the Congress party
10:43from IYC
10:44to Mahila Congress.
10:45They have all launched
10:46this kind of movement
10:47to reach
10:48to the Gen Z voters
10:49but on the other hand
10:50I'm sorry
10:50I'm having to interrupt
10:51you here
10:51but more and more
10:52responses
10:53that have been
10:53coming in from
10:54the BJP

10:55celebrating.
