He also gained notoriety for his involvement in a 2016 JNU event where anti-national slogans were raised. ​As soon as the event poster surfaced, ABVP JNU raised the issue prominently across its social media platforms and demanded the immediate cancellation of the event from the university administration. Following persistent protests and efforts by ABVP JNU, the event was cancelled. ABVP JNU also condemned the administrative officials who initially granted permission for an event aimed at glorifying anti-national elements. ABVP JNU raised its voice firmly against this programme, and the programme has now been cancelled.”
