The Delhi High Court on Wednesday declined a plea by India-born Swedish academic Ashok Swain, who sought to expunge certain remarks made by a judge while hearing his petition against the cancellation of his Overseas Citizenship of India card.

Mr. Swain had objected to the judge’s observation that some of his posts on X appeared to contain “objectionable” insinuations that could be interpreted as undermining the constitutional framework.
