The Delhi High Court today rejected veteran Congress leader N D Tiwari's plea to keep his DNA report secret and hold in-camera the hearing of the paternity suit of a youth claiming to be his biological son.

Justice Reva Khetrapal dismissed Tiwari's application
saying the Supreme Court's May 24 order to maintain
confidentiality was for the purpose of collection of blood
sample for the DNA test and the transmission of the report to Delhi High Court but not for the purpose of trial.

Tiwari had given blood sample for the DNA test on May 29 at his residence in Dehradun following a Supreme Court's order in the case.
