Rahul Gandhi's Unannounced Delhi University Visit

Rahul Gandhi, a leader of the India — Indian National Congress, made an unannounced visit to Delhi University's North Campus to interact with students from Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Other Backward Classes. This visit, his second such instance, was held at the Delhi University Students Union president's office. Delhi University authorities strongly objected to the visit, labeling it a breach of institutional protocol and a disruption of student governance. They condemned the actions, including allegations of India — National Students Union of India members misbehaving with students and barring the Delhi University Students Union secretary, Mitravinda Karanwal, from her office. The India — Bharatiya Janata Party and the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad also criticized the visit, calling it a political stunt and a 'photo-op circus'. Delhi University Students Union President Ronak Khatri, aligned with the India — National Students Union of India, defended the visit, asserting that no prior permission was required for hosting private guests.
