Meanwhile, the varsity has decided to conduct physical examinations for the ongoing academic session later this year. Challenging the decision, five outstation DU students filed a plea in High Court on February 9. However, Delhi High Court has refused to interfere with the Delhi University's decision to conduct offline examinations

The petitioners, represented by senior advocate Sanjay Hegde, also challenged another order stating the commencement of offline classes in the varsity from February 17, 2022. However, the varsity released the notice regarding the reopening of the campus for offline classes after receiving several requests from its students. DU in its order also advised outstation students to plan to reach Delhi in such a manner that they are able to complete the isolation period of three days before reporting to their respective colleges and departments.
