The Delhi High Court has scheduled September 29 to hear appeals requesting the disclosure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s bachelor’s degree details. The date was set after Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing Delhi University, requested an expedited hearing.
A Division Bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia was hearing the appeals, which challenged a single-judge ruling that overturned a Central Information Commission (CIC) directive to release the degree records. Proceedings were briefly deferred at the start following a passover request by the appellants' counsel.
