Panel to probe charges against Justice Varma

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Tuesday constituted a three-member committee to probe charges against Justice Yashwant Varma after admitting a multi-party notice for his removal, setting in motion the process of impeachment of the Allahabad High Court judge. The inquiry committee comprises Supreme Court judge Justice Aravind Kumar, Madras High Court Chief Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava and senior Karnataka High Court advocate B V Acharya. "The committee will submit its report as early as possible. The proposal (for removal of Justice Varma) will remain pending till the receipt of the report of the inquiry committee," Birla said.The Speaker informed the House, he has accepted the notices signed by 146 MPs from ruling and opposition benches for the removal of Justice Yashwant Verma.he Speaker said, the Parliament must speak in one voice on this matter and send a clear message to every citizen of the country about their zero-tolerance policy towards corruption in public life.

The Supreme Court last week dismissed Allahabad high court judge Yashwant Varma's plea for invalidating a report of an SC-appointed in-house inquiry panel, which found him guilty of misconduct. On March 21, the chief justice of India (CJI) had asked for the reply of Justice Varma in writing. The next day, Justice Yashwant Varma responded, trashing the allegations. CJI Sanjiv Khanna then constituted a three-member committee to inquire into allegations against Justice Varma. SC uploaded on its website an in-house inquiry report, including photos and videos related to the case.
