Authorities of Delhi University yesterday expelled a 20 year old student after he was found having dismal attendance record in the protests held in DU campus in the semester gone by.

While his attendance in the lectures was at par with the required norms, but he had a pathetic protest record and defaulted in the hungers strikes, sloganeering and the political brawls that took place inside campus.

“He wasn’t once hospitalized during last semester. Neither did he vandalize any campus property and nor did he make any video holding placards. This is great disrespect to the principles on which our university functions,” said Anshan Kumar, VC of DU.

“We haven’t built these chairs and tables for students to sit and waste their time studying. They are there so that students indulge in violence and throw it on each other. Agar padhna hi tha toh he should have taken up engineering or medical science. Why waste a seat that could have been used by a more enthusiastic protestor,” he added.

Anshan argued that students must observe the tradition of the university they are getting into.

“Every university has some ethos and values which are very dear to them. Like in Amity, a student is expected to always remain starstruck, in JMU one should have passion to remain student even if he has become senior citizen. Similarly if you are in DU, you must have passion for politics, activism and drama.” Anshan explained.

“Just because studying has helped you cleared high cut offs doesn’t mean it will help you once you are inside. If such acts continue unabated, films like Ranjhana, Haasil etc would be based on Sharda or Lovely University instead of DU,” he added.

Meanwhile AAP assured the students of DU to concentrate on protests and not stress too much about their grades in exams.

“They need not worry about their careers. We will recruit all of them as freelance protestors in our dharnas against Modi govt,” Kejriwal tweeted.
