Senior Advocate Harish Salve has once again criticized the Supreme Court’s Collegium system, calling himself a “trenchant critic” of it. He said that the system is “not equipped” to handle cases like the one involving Delhi High Court judge Yashwant Varma. The controversy revolves around reports that large amounts of cash were recovered from Justice Varma’s house. Mr. Salve has now called for the judge’s transfer to the Allahabad High Court to be put on hold until more clarity emerges.
