Congress leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, are weighing action after the party’s student wing failed to win any of the four central posts in the Delhi University Students’ Union election.
The National Students' Union of India (NSUI) failed to win any of the four central panel posts in the recent Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) elections, prompting Congress leadership to consider a response.
Sources said Rahul Gandhi and senior Congress figures expressed concern over the result, and party officials have begun internal discussions on organisational strategy and campaign management.
