VARANASI: Congress’ student wing, National Students Union of India (NSUI), has dealt a blow to its rival Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) with a clean sweep in the students’ union polls at Sampurnanand Sanskrit University, inviting praise from Congress general secretary for eastern Uttar Pradesh Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.

In results announced on Wednesday, NSUI won all the four important posts — president, vice-president, general secretary and library secretary.
