A two-judge bench of the Delhi High Court has issued a verdict rejecting a challenge brought by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. The case centered on a dispute regarding the disclosure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s academic degree records. The court, which had previously reserved its judgment on the matter, ultimately concluded that there was no merit in the arguments presented by the petitioner.

By refusing to interfere with the earlier ruling, the High Court has effectively maintained the status quo regarding the accessibility of the Prime Minister's educational credentials. The legal proceedings have been a point of contention for some time, with Kejriwal’s legal team seeking greater transparency, while the opposing side has maintained that the records are already a matter of public record or are protected under privacy standards. The court’s decision marks a significant procedural setback for the Chief Minister, who has frequently raised the issue of the Prime Minister's educational background in his political discourse. The bench did not provide extensive new commentary, opting instead to stand by the findings of the lower court that had initially handled the case.
