The National Students’ Union Of India (NSUI) on Thursday circulated a letter from the registrar of Thiruvalluvar University to Tamil Nadu’s principal secretary of education claiming Delhi University Students’ Union (DUSU) president never studied at the varsity.
However, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) said they are waiting for the Delhi University to complete its investigation on the allegations against DUSU president Ankiv Basoya of furnishing fake marksheets to get admission to Delhi University.
The Congress-affiliated NSUI had earlier released a letter from Thiruvalluvar University sent in response to a communication from the student’s body. It stated that the BA certificate submitted by Basoya from the university is fake. On Thursday, they again circulated a letter apparently written by the Thiruvalluvar University registrar to Tamil Nadu’s principal secretary of education.
“I hereby submit that Ankiv Basoya has not enrolled in our University or in any of our Constituent or Affiliated Colleges and is not our student at all… The certificate he has produced is fake and not from our University. The Controller of Examination has issued a letter stating that the certificate is not genuine after verification of records of the Controller of Examination office,” the leter said.
The NSUI accused the DU administration of acting in a biased manner and demanded their candidate Sunny Chhillar be declared as the DUSU President with immediate effect.
ABVP had bagged three out of four seats in the DU students’ union elections – president, vice-president and joint secretary. The NSUI had won the secretary’s post.
