TIL Desk/National/Ahmedabad-The Gujarat High Court stayed an order of the Central Information Commission (CIC), directing Gujarat University to provide “information regarding degrees in the name of Mr Narendra Damodar Modi”. It also issued fresh notices to Information Commissioner M Sridhar Acharyulu, who had passed the order, and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who had demanded the information.
A division bench of Chief Justice R Subhash Reddy and Justice V M Pancholi stayed the CIC’s directive till the High Court gives any further order on the plea of Gujarat University, which has questioned the information panel’s jurisdiction in the matter. There is no stay on the CIC’s directive to Delhi University to provide Modi’s marksheet.
Appearing for Gujarat University, lawyer Tushar Mehta contended that the information commissioner’s order was “illegal” since it was passed in a case in which the varsity was not a party. He also noted that the information sought by Kejriwal has already been uploaded on the varsity website.
