High-profile legal battles involving political luminaries, Bollywood celebrities and corporate bosses unfolded in the Delhi High Court in 2023 and kept it abuzz with activity.

Amid the unrelenting cut and thrust of these battles, the Delhi High Court also gave the thumbs up for the Modi government’s Agnipath scheme, launched in June 2022 for recruiting soldiers, sailors and airmen for a four-year period. The scheme, which envisaged an overhaul of India’s fighting machine, making it sturdier with the induction of young people aged 17.5 and 21 years, was reviled by its detractors, got resounding endorsement from supporters, and upheld by the court.

The high court also saw skirmishes involving media entities over alleged violation of Indian laws.
