A PIL (Public Interest Litigation) was filed against the appointment of DG MP-IDSA in the Delhi High Court on the grounds that he was nominated and not selected by a search-cum-selection committee which should mandatorily include at least one outside expert of eminence from the field. The Delhi High Court found the PIL to not be maintainable and thus dismissed it.<ref />
