NEW DELHI — The administration of Ramanujan College at Delhi University suspended student leader Anas Khan after leaked communications revealed he allegedly approached female students with cash incentives to accompany non-resident Indian attendees to high-profile events.
Khan served as the vice-president of the college student union and held ties to the Congress-affiliated National Students' Union of India. The surfaced digital records indicate he screened female candidates based on physical appearance and perceived attractiveness, dangling financial perks and tickets to marquee events—including a Diljit Dosanjh concert. The fallout was immediate. College authorities barred Khan from academic premises, igniting fierce campus protests and pressing law enforcement to scrutinize the financial machinery and overseas contacts driving the operation.
Campus unrest escalated rapidly once screenshots of the private solicitations circulated across student networks. The communications showed targeted pitches to undergraduate women, offering direct payments if they agreed to accompany foreign delegates and wealthy clients to commercial events.
Political rivals seized on the disclosures. The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad submitted formal petitions seeking an expansive federal inquiry, alleging the solicitations point toward an institutionalized syndicate operating inside university corridors.
Virendra Singh Solanki, National General Secretary of the ABVP, publicly demanded federal intervention to trace overseas fund flows and evaluate potential human trafficking channels.
The nature of these proposed gatherings, the non-resident Indian connections, and the financial transactions require immediate federal scrutiny by specialized agencies to unpack potential networks operating across borders.

Solanki also pointed to related digital exchanges flagged last month involving male students recruited for commercial functions, accusing rival outfits of establishing systemic networks across Delhi campuses. He further referenced the 2018 resignation of former national student president Fairoz Khan over misconduct charges to argue institutional negligence.
NSUI national leaders moved swiftly to insulate the organization from Khan, asserting that disciplinary proceedings against him predated the current firestorm.
Ravi Pandey, national media in-charge for the NSUI, maintained that the organization enforces zero tolerance against the financial inducement or exploitation of women. In an official release, the student body stated Khan faced suspension during the Delhi University Students' Union electoral campaign over indiscipline and anti-organizational conduct, leaving him with no active portfolio.
Yet the administrative dispute deepened. Opposing student leaders alleged the disciplinary notification was backdated to deflect legal liability, noting that Khan's personal communications previously cited personal resignations rather than formal dismissal.
