Allahabad Bar Association Demands Yashwant Varma's Impeachment

Delhi High Court Chief Justice DK Upadhyaya said Monday morning that Justice Yashwant Varma-the Delhi High Court judge at whose home a pile of burnt cash was discovered on Holi after a fire was put out-has been removed from active duty with "immediate effect till further orders." According to the Delhi High Court website Justice Varma - appointed in October 2021 - heads a division bench dealing with matters relating to sales tax, goods and services tax, company appeals, etc. This follows the Supreme Court forming a three-member committee - consisting of the chief justices of the Punjab and Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, and Karnataka High Courts - to investigate the matter.
