A Division Bench of the Delhi High Court (Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad) dismissed a batch of writ petitions that challenged the Agnipath scheme or sought completion of earlier recruitment processes. It held that the scheme was not arbitrary, capricious or devoid of reason and that it was made in national interest to ensure that the Armed Forces are better equipped. [1]
