PM Modi was travelling to attend the valedictory ceremony of Delhi University’s centenary celebrations and he had boarded the train at Lok Kalyan Marg metro station and deboarded at Vishwavidyalaya metro station on the Yellow Line. This is the closest station to DU North Campus.
There was a heavy security deployment at the metro stations and inside the coach. Some students sat while others stood next to Modi to interact with him.
A student who spoke with him said that it was a “magnificent experience”.
“I feel lucky that some of us got a chance to interact with the country’s prime minister up, close and personal. It felt very extraordinary. And, also got an opportunity to have a conversation with him while travelling on way to our university,” Shivam Gupta told news agency PTI.
Addressing the valedictory ceremony of Delhi University, Modi spoke about universities setting a roadmap for themselves with a focus on innovations and made references to some popular hangout joints for students.
“Don’t change everything completely. Leave some things like they are. The tea and noodles served at Patel Chest in North Campus, Momos of Chanakya in South Campus — you have to ensure that their taste should no change,” he said.
