National Students Union of India (NSUI) dismissed Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad’s claim that it was behind the attack on ABVP office at Matunga.

NSUI“ABVP should first tell us why did they claim that the attack was by Dalit activists and began blaming us only after BJP leaders visited their office,” NSUI leader Suraj Thakur said.

“NSUI abides by Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence and not the violent path preached by RSS and its outfits,” Thakur said.

“We should know what prompted ABVP to first allege dalit workers attacked their office and later on, pass the blame to us,” he said.

The ABVP office was vandalised by around six men, in which one of the members of the BJP-affiliated student union got injured, police had said.

The incident came in the wake of alleged suicide of Rohith Vemula, a Dalit research scholar pursuing PhD in Hyderabad Central University, who had earlier faced varsity’s action for allegedly assaulting an ABVP leader.

ABVP state organising secretary (Konkan region), Yadunath Deshpande had ruled out the possibility of any Dalit organisation being behind the incident, and alleged that the attack was done at the behest of Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi.

“This attack has been carried out by NSUI at the behest of Rahul Gandhi, as he is only interested in taking political mileage out of the suicide incident in Hyderabad,” he had alleged.
