The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) secured a significant victory in the Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections, with Yash Dabas winning the president post and Riya Chhawdi becoming secretary. The BJP described the results as a clear endorsement of 'Nation First' politics by the youth, while also taking aim at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

The ABVP's win in the DUSU polls has drawn major political reactions. The BJP said the results reflect the unwavering trust of the youth in the council and its commitment to student welfare. It criticised the Congress for what it called a politics of lies, deceit and propaganda, accusing it of spreading falsehood and negative propaganda.

The BJP also commented on Rahul Gandhi's role, stating, "We want Rahul Gandhi to become even more involved in student politics, because the more involved he gets, the further NSUI declines." The setback for the National Students' Union of India (NSUI) comes at a time when Gandhi is organising a youth outreach programme. The BJP described the DUSU results as the voice of Generation Z and questioned whether Rahul Gandhi is hearing the roar of truth from students.

The party's campaign used the phrase 'Nation First' politics, which it said the youth have endorsed through their votes. The BJP's response to the election outcome was described as a 'tight slap on his face' directed at Rahul Gandhi, highlighting the political significance of the ABVP's victory.
