Office-bearers of AFT Chandigarh bar association say they're likely to move High Court or Supreme Court against decision to transfer Justice (retd.) Dharam Chand Chaudhury to Kolkata bench.
After govt's delay in notifying its 2022 proposal to transfer Orissa HC's S Muralidhar, SC Collegium has recommended Sanjay V Gangapurwala, acting chief justice of Bombay HC, for the post.
Chief Justice Sanjib Banerjee issued a string of notable orders during his tenure, from Covid management to staying IT Rules. Many question the reasons behind his transfer.
The Supreme Court has said disclosing the collegium’s reason behind transferring judges ‘will not be in the interest of the institution’, but it would ‘if found necessary’.
This decision is so damaging to the government that efforts will be made to ensure that it does not stand. The prosecution has said that it will file an appeal in the high court.
The Pakistani political leadership is weak and devoid of any intellect. Its diplomacy is entirely India-China-US focused and suffers from a presumptive view of Afghanistan as a vassal.
