The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad registered a decisive victory in the Delhi University Students' Union elections, winning three out of the four central panel positions. The BJP student wing bagged the posts of president, secretary, and joint secretary, while the vice president post went to an independent candidate. The Congress-backed National Students' Union of India suffered a complete rout, failing to secure a single seat on the central panel despite early counting leads. The election outcome reflects the resonance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's youth-centric outreach and engagement with Gen Z voters following recent student protests across the national capital.
