Chhatra jo apne jeevan me sanklap leta hai aur use pura karta hai usi ko Purvanchal university ka chhatra kahte hai. (Youth student is the one who when kicks a rock brings out water.

Samajwadi Party spokesperson Manoj Rai Dhupchandi criticized the VC saying, “This is a highly objectionable comment. Vice chancellor motivates students to do well in education. But Purvanchal University VC is motivating them to get into hooliganism. This is very disappointing. Action should be taken against the vice chancellor.”
