The Supreme Court on Monday came to the rescue of a Dalit youth, who lost his hard-earned IIT Dhanbad seat after missing the deadline to deposit Rs 17,500 admission fees by few minutes, by asking the institute to admit him in the same batch of the BTech course.

'Do well': CJI wishes Dalit boy good luck after restoring his IIT seat

Observing that "a talented student like the petitioner should not be left in the lurch", a bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud kept its promise to help the youth and took recourse of Article 142 of the Constitution to order the IIT Dhanbad to grant Atul Kumar (18) the admission in the Electrical Engineering course.

On September 25, the bench, also comprising justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra had assured him of all possible help after he claimed that on June 24 he missed the 5 pm deadline of deposit admission fees to block a seat by 15 minutes.
