Today, On 30th July, Supreme Court questioned Justice Yashwant Varma’s conduct, saying, “Chief Justice is not a post office, he also has duties towards the nation,” while examining the constitutional challenge to the in-house procedure for judicial misconduct.
Justice Yashwant Varma’s impeachment process faced a setback after sources said the Rajya Sabha did not accept the motion related to the burnt cash case. Now, the government is expected to bring the motion in the Lok Sabha instead.
Despite one-third of High Court seats lying vacant, the government and opposition are advocating to impeach two judges raising questions about priorities in India’s already burdened judicial system.
