Normally when a judge is transferred to another state, it is on promotion as chief justice. In this case, he has been transferred as a judge to the Punjab and Haryana high court. Does the Bar sense that there is some victimisation in this or some injustice has been done? I would not say that it is victimisation or anything. We expected that because he was a senior judge – after the chief justice, he was the third most senior judge or J2 as we say and in 10-12 days’ time he would have become the second most senior judge in the Delhi high court. So we would have expected that he be sent as a chief justice to some court, then it would have been appropriate. But sending him again as a puisne judge to another high court at this juncture, it was just as if our institution, our high court is not being considered properly.
