Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 018732/2026 The Supreme Court heard R. Dhandapani's Special Leave Petition challenging the Madras High Court's order that declared his Ph.D. degree void. The Court condoned the delay in filing and disposed of the petition without interfering with the High Court's decision, but clarified that only the Ph.D. was declared void—no direction was issued regarding his graduate or postgraduate degrees.
