Delhi University's Hindu College Admission Row Reaches Rashtrapati Bhavan; Teachers Demand Probe

New Delhi: Allegations of irregularities in admissions under the sports and extracurricular activities (ECA) quotas at Delhi University s Hindu College have reached Rashtrapati Bhavan, with the President s Secretariat forwarding a complaint to the Union Ministry of Education for further action.

The development has raised expectations among protesting teachers that the alleged violations in the college s 2026-27 admission process will be independently investigated. The Hindu College Staff Association has been staging a protest on the campus since September 14, demanding transparency and accountability in admissions and the functioning of the college administration.

Lok Sabha MP Sudhakar Singh, representing Buxar constituency in Bihar and a top leader of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), had joined the teachers protest on October 6, when the staff association apprised him of its allegations regarding the admission process and grievances against the college administration.

The MP subsequently raised the matter with the President. Following the complaint, Rashtrapati Bhavan sent a communication to the Ministry of Education, referring the matter for further action. The staff association is now awaiting the ministry s response.
