Delhi Elections : DU prof in fray of Lok Sabha Polls from East Delhi
An associate professor with the Hindi department, Dr Prem Singh is contesting the elections from the East Delhi constituency. At 52, he has been teaching for the last 25 years.
Singh has started campaigning in full force. “I have started door-to-door campaigning and while people are surprised at my profession to begin with, they like to listen to what I say,” he says. “I talk about my 10 promises for bringing reforms if I win the election,” Singh says.
Singh has been actively involved in social work and claims to be a socialist who follows Gandhian principles, and has supporters in people like Medha Patkar. In fact, he says, if everything goes right, he might request her to campaign for him.
The success of Kiran Walia, Yoganand Shastri and V K Malhotra before him is encouraging for Singh.
