Tennis player challenges exclusion of game from Hindu College sports quota admissions
New Delhi: A junior national-level tennis player has moved the Delhi High Court questioning the alleged omission of tennis from the list of games available to seek admission under the sports quota at Hindu College of Delhi University. Justice Vikas Mahajan on Monday sought the stand of the college and DU on the plea filed by Aditi Rawat, challenging the absence of lawn tennis in the sports offered by the college for admission under the sports quota for the upcoming academic year. The plea stated that Rawat is "a distinguished Lawn Tennis athlete and gold medallist at the CBSE Nationals" and challenges "the arbitrary denial of admission" under the Sports Quota (Lawn Tennis) at Hindu College. It contends that the college authorities violated DU's Common Seat Allocation System (CSAS) Policy 2025-26, which provides for a mandatory 5% supernumerary sports quota in each college.

Highlighting that the student-athlete has outstanding qualifications at various levels, such as national-level sports achievements, and also satisfies all eligibility conditions for admission under the sports quota, the petition seeks direction to the college to reserve one seat for her until the court decides the matter. As per the plea, Rawat applied for admission in DU under the sports quota with Hindu College as her first preference. "To the utter surprise and grave prejudice of the petitioner, it was revealed that Hindu College has not allotted even a single seat under the discipline of Lawn Tennis, neither for men nor for women candidates. This is despite the fact that Lawn Tennis is among the recognised and approved sporting disciplines under the Sports Quota admissions, and several other colleges under DU have allotted such seats. The omission is both unjustified and discriminatory, creating a hostile environment for Lawn Tennis aspirants, such as the petitioner," the petition says.
