An inquiry panel has recommended the removal of Justice Yashwant Varma after ₹crores in cash were found at his Delhi residence during a March 14 fire. The Supreme Court-constituted panel cited his "unnatural conduct"—including communicating only via WhatsApp, not visiting the cash-stash site, and accepting his transfer to Allahabad High Court without protest. Justice Varma failed to file a police complaint, despite alleging a conspiracy. CCTV cameras were non-functional, and a viral midnight video revealed cash piled in the store room. Parliament is expected to begin impeachment proceedings against the judge in the next session, government sources confirmed.
