Earlier in the day, Gandhi, who is also the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, visited DU’s North Campus and interacted with students from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Other Backward Classes (OBC). The interaction focused on issues of representation, equality, and academic justice.

This is the second such visit by Gandhi to DU’s campus without official clearance, drawing a sharp response from university authorities.
