The Hindu  

A two-judge Bench of the Delhi High Court on Thursday barred six students who had been allotted provisional admission to St. Stephen’s College from attending classes till further orders. While hearing the college’s appeal, the Bench of Acting Chief Justice Manmohan and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela pulled up the university for allotting more students to St. Stephens’s than the sanctioned strength. ‘Didn’t get fair chance’ St. Stephen’s College, represented by advocate Romy Chacko, argued that the single-judge’s decision violated the principles of natural justice by not giving the college a fair chance to present its case. Advocate Rishi Malhotra, representing the six students, told The Hindu, “We have not consented to that yet as it is their right to attend St. Stephen’s College as they have secured the seats.” He contended that the college’s appeal against the August 23 order was not maintainable.
