    Case Summary: MJC/1129/2026 Ashish Ranjan sought modification of the High Court's September 2025 order that expelled him from Aryabhatta Knowledge University for three years from the Vice Chancellor's order dated November 12, 2024. He argued this interpretation effectively imposed four years of disqualification and requested the expulsion period be counted as three academic years (2024-25, 2025-26, 2026-27) instead. Justice Anil Kumar Sinha rejected the modification, holding that the original order was carefully considered to balance disproportionality concerns and that modifying it based on academic sessions would retrospectively award punishment before the Vice Chancellor's order date. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
