💨 Abstract

Bar associations have demanded criminal investigation against Justice Yashwant Varma over unaccounted cash allegations, following his transfer from the Delhi High Court to the Allahabad High Court. The Supreme Court Collegium made the transfer after the allegations surfaced. Justice Varma has denied the accusations. The bar associations also call for accountability standards for higher judiciary and a reassessment of the in-house procedure for action against judges.
