“I am the only female representative in DUSU. I don’t feel safe after my office was vandalised by NSUI. No female student feels comfortable going to their office. NSUI only works to intimidate and threaten,” DUSU Secretary and ABVP member Aprajita Thakur told PTI. 

NSUI condemns ABVP's politics of violence and threats against students and teachers.

Their attempts to divert from the fake degree scandal won't work.
