    HC directs N D Tiwari to undergo paternity test

    New Delhi: Rejecting veteran Congress leader N D Tiwari's plea, the Delhi High Court today directed him to undergo a DNA test to ascertain the veracity of a young man's claim that he is his biological son. Justice S Ravindra Bhat said, 'There is imminent need for him to give blood sample to conduct the scientific test.'

    The court turned down the 85-year-old former Andhra Pradesh Governor's plea that he cannot be forced to undergo the DNA test, saying it is the right of a child to know his or her biological father.

    '...It is not in the interest of the child to be declared a *******,' the court said.

    Justice Bhat passed the order on a paternity suit filed by 31-year-old Rohit Shekhar, claiming to be biological son of Tiwari.
