JNU's Kanhaiya says no plans to be a politician

Amidst speculation on his political ambitions, Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) president Kanhaiya Kumar on Friday said he has no intention of joining mainstream politics or contesting any election.
The PhD student, who is facing sedition charge, also said that parliament attack convict Afzal Guru was a citizen of India and a debate on his death
penalty is "legitimate". He said Guru is not his "idol" but Rohith Vemula, the Hyderabad Central University student who committed suicide,is.
"I am not a politician, I am a student. I have no intention of joining mainstream politics or contesting any election. I want to question as a student and I will like to answer as a teacher in the future. So, the question
about my political ambitions should be kept aside," he said. "The people of the country have not voted for me... It's the students of the university who have. I am not the country's president but of the JNU students' union.
