Punjab Congress MLA Pargat Singh. (Express Archives: Kamleshwar Singh) Punjab Congress MLA Pargat Singh has raised objections over a video showing Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) Vice-Chancellor Karamjeet Singh briefing Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat during an education conference held in Mysuru on July 28.
The interaction took place at the ‘Gyan Sabha – Education for Viksit Bharat’, an event organised by Shiksha Sanskriti Utthan Nyas and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham at BN Bahadur Institute of Management Sciences (BNBIMS) in Manasagangotri, Mysuru. The event focused on the role of education in building a developed India.
Pargat criticised the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)-led Punjab government, accusing it of ideological alignment with the RSS. Taking to X, he posted: “When Guru Nanak Dev University’s Vice-Chancellor is seen Abjectively explaining things to the RSS Chief, it raises serious questions. It shows how the @AamAadmiParty government in Punjab has helped the RSS to take control of the entire education system, including universities, in Punjab.”
