During a BJP event at TRS College in Rewa, NSUI activists led by district president Pankaj Upadhyay surrounded Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla, pressing for student‑union elections.
Rewa, Madhya Pradesh – On the day of the BJP's "Loktantra Bachao, Arajkata Hatao" rally at TRS College, a group of NSUI activists entered the venue and formed a circle around Deputy Chief Minister Rajendra Shukla. The protest was organized under the leadership of NSUI district president Pankaj Upadhyay, who demanded that the college hold fresh student‑union elections.
According to eyewitnesses, the NSUI members raised slogans and held placards calling for a transparent and democratic election process for the student council, which they say has been stalled for months. The deputy chief minister listened to the demands but did not make any immediate commitment.
The incident unfolded without any reported violence, and security personnel kept the situation contained. The BJP's program continued after the protest, while the NSUI leaders vowed to continue pressing the authorities for a timely election schedule.
Local authorities have been asked to look into the matter and ensure that the student‑union election is conducted in accordance with university regulations. The episode highlights the growing tension between student bodies and political parties in several Madhya Pradesh colleges.
The NSUI's action at TRS College adds to a series of recent campus protests across the state, reflecting broader concerns about student representation and governance in higher‑education institutions.
