Gujarat High Court upholds dismissal of plea seeking Modi's degree disclosure via RTI

The Gujarat High Court has upheld an earlier single-judge bench ruling that denied disclosure of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's educational records under the Right to Information (RTI) Act. The court's decision came on a petition filed seeking access to the PM's degree details.

The bench emphasized that the RTI mechanism should not be weaponized for political vendetta. The ruling reinforces that while transparency is important, the Act cannot be misused to serve partisan interests or harass public officials.
