Azam Khan alleged that the Uttar Pradesh government has not removed the barbed wire fence from the university in Rampur, despite a court order and as a result, it cannot function properly.
Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan has said he will sue the Uttar Pradesh government in the Supreme Court and request it to launch contempt of court proceedings for sealing his university, despite orders against doing so.
The top court on Thursday sought the state government's response following its order by which it had stayed the bail condition imposed on Mr Khan that the land adjoining the Jauhar University campus will be attached.
Mr Khan alleged that the Uttar Pradesh government has not removed the barbed wire fence from the university in Rampur, despite a court order and as a result, it cannot function properly.
Justices AM Khanwilkar and JB Pardiwala said that the state government will file its response by July 19 and listed the matter for further hearing on July 22.
