New Delhi, August 9, 2026: Eeshna Gupta, a 25-year-old youth leader, has been appointed Sah Prabhari (Co-Incharge) of the Association of Students for Alternative Politics (ASAP), Delhi, the student wing of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

Gupta has been actively involved in student and youth issues and has worked at the grassroots level on matters concerning education, political participation and social development. She previously contested the MCD by-election from Greater Kailash Ward 173 on an AAP ticket in 2025, marking her entry into electoral politics at a young age.

She has also been actively involved in youth-led political mobilisation, activism and was seen at the forefront of the Cockroach Janta Party protest at Jantar Mantar, Delhi, which brought together young people raising concerns on paper leaks and accountability leading to the resignation of former education minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Eeshna Gupta takes charge as Sah Prabhari of ASAP Delhi, marking a new step in strengthening youth and student voices in politics.

With a background in social work and activism, Gupta has spent the past several years working on issues affecting young people and communities. Her appointment is being seen as part of the organisation’s continued effort to bring young leaders into positions of responsibility and strengthen student participation in politics.

ASAP was launched in May 2025 by AAP National Convenor Shri Arvind Kejriwal, former Delhi Education Minister Shri Manish Sisodia and Delhi State President Shri Saurabh Bharadwaj. The organisation was established to strengthen AAP’s engagement with Gen Z and the student community, with a focus on education reforms, improving India’s education system and raising issues concerning students across the country.

Speaking about the appointment, Gupta said that young people must not merely be treated as voters or campaigners but must have a meaningful role in shaping political decisions and public policy.

“India’s youth are not just the future of this country; we are its present. Students deserve an education system that gives them opportunities, dignity and the freedom to question and participate. I look forward to working with students across Delhi and strengthening their voice within the political process.”

The appointment is expected to further strengthen ASAP’s outreach among students and young people across Delhi and contribute to its efforts to build a stronger platform for student participation, education reform and youth leadership.
