Students must pursue professional degree courses with seriousness: Delhi HC
By : Sandhya
New Delhi, Students in professional degree courses must pursue their studies with all "seriousness and due diligence", Delhi High Court has observed while rejecting a student's plea to be permitted to appear in LLB examination despite falling short of the minimum attendance criterion.
A bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela dismissed a woman student's appeal, challenging a single judge's order that had also rejected her plea seeking permission to appear in the third semester Bachelor of Laws examination at the Delhi University's Faculty of Law.
"While concurring with the reasoning rendered by the single judge, we too are of the considered opinion that the students pursuing such professional degree courses must pursue the said courses with all seriousness and due diligence," the division bench said in an order passed on February 21 and uploaded on Tuesday.
