Supreme Court collegium recommends transfer of judge to Calcutta High Court
Justice Joymalya Bagchi to go back from Andhra Pradesh High Court
The Central government has notified the transfer of Justice Joymalya Bagchi back to Calcutta High Court from Andhra Pradesh High Court.
The notification issued by the Ministry of Law & Justice stated, "In exercise of the powers conferred by the Constitution of India, the President, after consultation with the Chief Justice of India, is pleased to transfer Justice Joymalya Bagchi, judge of the Andhra Pradesh High Court, as a judge of the Calcutta High Court.
In 2020, the collegium had recommended transferring Justice Bagchi from Calcutta to Andhra Pradesh. But, providing no reason, last month, the collegium, headed by Chief Justice of India N V Ramana, recommended the "re-transfer" of Justice Bagchi to his parent high court.
Justice Bagchi's transfer to Andhra Pradesh High Court happened during the controversy over allegations by Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. Citing the reason, it was said that a senior Supreme Court judge was interfering in the functioning of the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
