Justice Yashwant Varma was recently sworn in as a judge of the Allahabad High Court amidst a controversy surrounding the recovery of semi-burnt cash from his residence. The oath-taking ceremony took place despite an ongoing in-house inquiry into the matter, with no judicial work assigned to Justice Varma at the moment. The legal fraternity has expressed concerns over the decision to proceed with the appointment, prompting a public interest litigation (PIL) to halt the ceremony. Critics are urging the Chief Justice to reconsider Justice Varma’s appointment until the investigation is completed. The controversy has raised questions about the integrity of the judiciary and has sparked a debate within the legal community.
