St. Stephen’s College Challenges DU’s Single Girl-Child Quota in HC
St. Stephen’s College has argued in the Delhi High Court that Delhi University’s (DU) single girl-child quota is “ex-facie unconstitutional.” The college contended that the additional allocation of seats under this quota disrupts the admission process and infringes on its minority rights. Represented by Senior Advocate Romy Chacko, the college emphasized that such quotas interfere with the institution’s autonomy and reservation policies, which are strictly regulated. The court is now set to deliberate on the constitutionality of this admission practice.
