\n Dehradun\/New Delhi, July 27 (ANI): Veteran Congress leader N.D. Tiwari still was in denial mode today even after his DNA report matched with those of Rohit Shekhar, and termed the entire episode a well-planned conspiracy to malign his image.
\n Tiwari’s spokesperson read out his message before mediapersons in Uttarakhand’s Dehradun city.
\nTiwari, who has also served in the past as the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh, is presently in his hometown in Dehradun.
\nThe Delhi High Court today said the DNA report confirms Tiwari as Shekhar’s biological father.
\n Earlier, Justice Reva Khetrapal decided to open Tiwari’s DNA report along with those of paternity suit petitioner Rohit Shekhar and his mother Ujjwala Sharma at 2.30 p.m. today, to declare the result in open court.
\nJustice Khetrapal, however, did not give permission for handing over copies to any party.
\n Eight seven-year-old Tiwari had earlier on Thursday moved the Delhi High Court to keep his DNA test report confidential till the conclusion of the hearing in the paternity suit.
\nHe filed the appeal seeking the court to protect his right to reputation, and alleged that the single-judge bench, which ordered that the DNA report be made public, has adopted a “shortcut” to decide the suit and it would cause grave injustice to him.<\/p>\n\n
