Saaket Gokhale claimed on Saturday that Ankhi Das “attends sessions” of the World Organization of Students & Youth (WOSY), a youth group, that is led by her sister, Rashmi Das. Gokhale claimed WOSY’s office was located in same building as an RSS outfit in Delhi.
Rashmi Das was also an office-bearer of the ABVP in Jawaharlal Nehru University.

In a press statement on its Twitter handle, WOSY said the claim Ankhi Das attended its sessions was “completely false even to this day”. Noting that Rashmi Das had been with WOSY for over two decades, the organisation said her association with it was purely voluntary in nature and aimed to spread the concept of Vasudeva Kuttambakam (whole world is one family) among international students living in India.
