Communist Party of India (CPI) leader Atul Anjan on Tuesday said that the Delhi University council is full of fools.
"The Delhi University council is full of fools and this issue has become political now. I think it is the foreign and private universities that are behind the pressure on UGC to make this change," said Anjan.
The University Grants Commission (UGC) had on Sunday issued a directive to DU asking it to scrap the FYUP.
The order fueled criticism from some quarters that the UGC was trying to over step boundaries.
DU students as well as aspiring students have been facing a lot of difficulties due to ongoing tiff between the UGC and the university over the FYUP.
