JAIPUR: National Students Union of India (NSUI) on Thursday announced its candidate for the Rajasthan University (RU) elections 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After NSUI fielded Ritu Balara \u2013 former president of the Maharani student union, for the president post, many other NSUI leaders turned dissidents. One of them was Niharika Jorwal \u2013 daughter of the minister of state for tourism and agriculture marketing. She announced that she would fight the elections as an independent candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ritu \u2013 who hails from Chidawa in Jhunjhunu \u2013 was fielded due to her popularity among girls, particularly the girl students of Maharani College. Maharani College has the largest number of voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Niharika was one of the strongest candidates for the election and an NSUI frontrunner. After the list of candidates was announced by the NSUI, she broke down. She said that she has been actively fighting for students for the past four years and deserved the ticket. But she didn\u2019t get it because she was a scheduled tribe (ST) candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n
