In a social media post on X, Choudhary wrote, "NSUI fought well in this odd election - not just against ABVP, but against the combined force of DU Admin, Delhi Government, Central Government, RSS-BJP & Delhi Police. Yet thousands of DU students stood firmly with us and our candidates fought well. Best wishes to Rahul Jhansla, newly elected DUSU Vice President from NSUI panel, and to all other office bearers who won. They even tried to steal elections by manipulating EVMs and using professors of DU election team. Win or loss, NSUI will always fight for common students, their issues & to save DU. We will only grow stronger." (ANI)
