Following his victory in the Panjab University Campus Students' Council elections, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad candidate Ankit Bidhan credited the youth for his win, saying, "Gen Z ke dil mein ABVP aur Modi ji hain." Speaking on India First, Bidhan addressed key student issues, noting that the ABVP was the first organisation to protest against paper leaks and confront the state administration. Highlighting the alliance with the Students Organisation of India, he described it as an example of Hindu-Sikh brotherhood. Outlining his campus agenda, Bidhan promised to fulfill his manifesto, including 24x7 free e-rickshaw transport for female students and stipends for non-JRF scholars.
