The Supreme Court on Monday refused to interfere with the Delhi High Court’s order permitting the St. Stephen College to go ahead with its interviews of the candidates from the Christian community for admission while giving them 15 percent weightage of marks.
A bench of Justice A.S. Bopanna and Justice Pamidighantam Sri Narasimha refused to interfere with the High Court’s interim order permitting the college to conduct interviews for the admission of candidates from the Christian community.
Asking the High Court to decide the issue expeditiously, the bench observed that any modifications to the interim order by the high court may affect students already admitted.
