The Supreme Court Collegium has recommended the transfer of four Chief Justices of High Courts during its meeting held on Monday (May 26).
Among them, Justice MS Ramachandra Rao has been proposed to be transferred from the Jharkhand High Court to the Telangana High Court.
Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh has been transferred from the Tripura High Court to the Telangana High Court.
Other major recommendations are the transfer of Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava from the Rajasthan High Court to the Madras High Court, and Justice KR Shriram from the Madras High Court to the Rajasthan High Court.
Justice Shrivastava, earlier the Acting Chief Justice of Rajasthan, hails from Chhattisgarh. Appointed in April 2023, Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh’s parent High Court is in Jharkhand, while Justice Shriram’s parent HC is the Bombay High Court.
The recommendations are in line with the collegium’s efforts to ensure effective judicial administration through strategic appointments and transfers across High Courts.
