New Delhi, Jul 18 (PTI) The Delhi High Court on Friday sought details from Hindu College in the capital on seats under extra curricular activities or sports quotas for its academic year 2025-26.
Justice Vikas Mahajan directed the college administration to reserve a seat under the quota for 2025-26 while it deicides a plea seeking its allocation to a lawn tennis player.
The petitioner, Rawat, has challenged the non-implementation of 5 per cent extra curricular activities (ECA)/ sports quota by the college for under graduate admissions, as mandated by Delhi University.
Advocate Jeetender Gupta, the counsel for the petitioner who claims to be a gold medallist at CBSE nationals, said the stipulation in the brochure on sports quota was not being followed by the college.
He said based on the number of seats available at the college, it required to reserve at least 47 seats for the ECA/sports quota.
However, only 20 seats (10 for ECA and sports quota each) were reserved by the college, he argued.
Further, in sports quota, the reservation is only for three sports namely, basketball, cricket and football, Gupta added. PTI UK UK AMK AMK
