We also looked out for the mood on ABVP Delhi handle, however, we only came across two tweets posted by the handle :
सचिव पद पर महामेधा व सह-सचिव पद पर उमा शंकर विद्यार्थी परिषद से विजयी…
अध्यक्ष व उपाध्यक्ष पद पर NSUI को दी कड़ी टक्कर…वन्दे मातरम् !— ABVP Delhi (@ABVPDelhi) September 13, 2017

We also checked handles of BJP and associates, especially of those ministers who campaigned for the DU elections, however, we could not find any tweet posted by them on this result.
Surely, this victory brings back lot of cheer to the Congress, boosting their prep up for the 2019 countdown.
Congratulations to all the winners.
