The Union Government transferred Justice Soumen Sen from the Meghalaya High Court to the Kerala High Court as Chief Justice. He will succeed Justice Nitin Madhukar Jamdar, who will retire on January 9.
Justice Markandey Katju has strongly criticised the transfer of Justice Nisha Banu, calling it unfair and dangerous for the independence of High Court judges. He urged the Supreme Court Collegium to review the decision and ensure transparency and fairness in judicial transfers.
