Jammu and Kashmir High Court Orders Passport Revival for Student to Complete MBBS in Iran
The Jammu and Kashmir High Court directed authorities to reinstate the passport of a female medical student from Srinagar to complete her MBBS course in Iran. Her passport was impounded due to a 1997 case involving her father and concerns over national security. The court noted the student was born in 2005 and questioned the basis of security fears. It allowed a fresh security audit before revival and emphasized the importance of her education continuation amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
