Analysts feel that the results assume significance as they hint at a change in the wind with youth getting alienated from ‘nationalist’ version of student politics and getting disenchanted with Modi.

In Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s parliamentary constituency Varanasi, RSS’ student wing Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has lost all seats in Mahatma Gandhi Kashi Vidyapeeth Students Union election.

While Samajwadi Yuvjan Chhatra Sabha (SYCS) leader Vimlesh Yadav was elected as the president, Congress’ student wing NSUI won 4 positions including that of the vice president and general secretary. The SYCS is the student wing of the Samajwadi Party.

The NSUI also bagged six out of eight faculty representatives in the polls.

UP watchers feel that the results of the polls assume significance as they hint at a change in the wind with youth getting alienated from the ‘nationalist’ version of student politics and getting disenchanted with Modi.

Calling it a victory over poor quality of employment and education, president of Uttar Pradesh East NSUI, Akhilesh Yadav said, “Students have supported NSUI by rejecting ABVP hooliganism. We will strengthen their voice and win all positions in the coming elections.”
