The SC Collegium on Monday recommended that Additional Judge of the Patna High Court, Justice Arun Kumar be made a permanent judge.

The Collegium, which included CJI Dipak Misra and Justices Ranjan Gogoi and Madan B. Lokur, had five other recommendations for the appointment as Permanent Judge of the Patna HC.

In fact, including Justice Arun Kumar the following names were forwarded by the Patna HC to the Collegium in January this year:

1)      Justice Birendra Kumar

2)      Justice Arvind Srivastava

3)      Justice Vinod Kumar Sinha

4)      Justice Sanjay Priya

5)      Justice Sanjay Kumar

However, the Supreme Court Collegium considered Justice Arun Kumar suitable for the post, noting that he is due to retire on 21 August this year. The proposal pertaining to other Additional Judges was therefore decided to be taken up later, at an appropriate stage.
