‘Majority did not vote for them’, says CJP's Saurav Das as ABVP sweeps DUSU polls
Das said those who secured positions in the elections should remember that they were not “kings or queens”, as the majority of students had not voted for them.
CJP co-convenor Saurav Das stated that the recent DUSU election results indicated a majority of students were against the current regime, but the division resulted in a benefit for the regime. Das emphasized that those elected should remember they are not "kings or queens", as the majority of students did not vote for them. He criticized the Congress and its bureaucratic wings, urging them to focus on their organizational affairs rather than targeting the CJP.
Das also raised concerns about the fragmented Left unity, stating that some groups were too focused on ideological purity and exclusivity. He noted that efforts to resolve these issues had been ongoing for 12 years, with people growing impatient. Das highlighted the rebel NSUI candidate's victory in the vice-president post with a large margin after being denied the NSUI ticket.
He criticized the opposition for reducing political sentiment to the outcome of a single student-union election, which was driven by money and muscle power. Das concluded that the opposition's unity, if not effective, would likely keep them in the opposition. ABVP secured all three positions in the Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) elections, with Yash Dabas elected as President and Deepanshu Shokeen as Vice President.
