Chief Justice of India Surya Kant has declined an invitation to be chief guest at the upcoming convocation of Nalsar University of Law, amid a controversy over opposition from a section of students that later drew the intervention of the Bar Council of India (BCI).
Speaking to The Times of India after addressing vice-chancellors of national law universities in Jodhpur, CJI Kant said he "never consented to Nalsar's invitation" to attend the convocation.
