Justice Arun Mishra has been criticized for favoring the Modi government in his judgments, including several during court vacations that benefited Adani. He publicly called Modi a “visionary” and was allowed to keep his official house for 9 months after retirement, contrary to rules. Later, he was appointed NHRC Chief, where he did little for three years. Mahua Moitra called him an “Internationally Acclaimed Brown-noser” after his appointment as BCCI Ombudsman, highlighting concerns about political influence on judicial appointments.
