The Delhi University (DU) has committed to conducting a special examination for law students who are unable to attend their semester exam scheduled for May 28, which coincides with Eid-ul-Azha (Bakrid). This assurance was given in a statement to the Delhi High Court during a hearing of a petition by Saif Rashid Saeed, a sixth-semester law student. The university's counsel indicated that students wishing to celebrate the festival should notify the Dean of the Faculty of Law by tomorrow. The court emphasized that the rescheduled exam will take place after July 4 and will be communicated to affected students at least one week in advance. The petition highlighted concerns over the university's decision to hold the exam on a recognized public holiday, arguing that it infringes on students' rights to observe an important religious festival. Bakrid, celebrated by Muslims, involves prayers, animal sacrifices, and family feasts, and is observed in various regions across India, including Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and West Bengal.
