The news of Chetan Bhagat's Five Point Someone making it to Delhi University’s English literature syllabus has created quite a stir in social media. Some appeared dumbstruck by the decisions and begged to know why the book was included in the syllabus.

Some were unable to figure out the reason behind Delhi University’s decision:

I fail to understand why a #DU student should read #ChetanBhagat's novel #FivePointSomeone in their syllabus. Please tell me the reason.

@chetan_bhagat, #FivePointSomeone the words english literature and chetan bhagat being used in a same sentence is a joke in itself.

Everyone is disappointed that #chetanbhagat's #FivePointSomeone will be part of DU's syllabus but no one can tell 'why not'

Some got creative over Chetan Bhagat’s writing career:

When you have @chetan_bhagat in your syllabus, there's full chance of you turning out to be half- literate #FivePointSomeone #DU.

Delhi University's BA course will now be recognised as 'Half-BA' #DelhiUniversity#FivePointSomeone

Going by some tweets, putting Chetan Bhagat and J K Rowling is definitely the highest point in the former’s life.

#FivePointSomeone is to be taught along with #PhilosophersStone as literature in DU. This must be the highest point in @chetan_bhagat's life

Five Point Someone will be taught along with novels by famous writers like Agatha Christie and JK Rowling and would be part of the popular fiction paper in the General Elective.
