SC Collegium revises transfer decision for Justice Arvind Singh Chandel; recommends Patna HC instead of Madras HC
The Supreme Court Collegium, headed by CJI DY Chandrachud, initially proposed the transfer of Chhattisgarh HC’s Justice Arvind Singh Chandel to the Madras High Court on March 15. However, following Justice Chandel’s representation requesting reconsideration, the Collegium decided to recommend his transfer to the Patna HC instead.
Comprising Justices Sanjiv Khanna, BR Gavai, Surya Kant, and Anirudha Bose, the Collegium made this decision after rejecting Justice Chandel’s plea for reconsideration or alternative postings in other high courts.
Consultations with SC Judges familiar with Chhattisgarh HC affairs and the Patna HC chief justice informed the decision. The Collegium noted that while it couldn’t fully accommodate Justice Chandel’s request, it partially acceded by recommending his transfer to the Patna HC, diverging from the earlier proposal for the Madras HC.
