SC collegium recommends Justice D Krishnakumar as Manipur HC chief justice

Hindustan Times  

The Supreme Court collegium on Monday recommended the appointment of Justice D Krishnakumar, a judge of the Madras high court, as the next chief justice of the Manipur high court. To be sure, Justice Mridul’s appointment as the chief justice of the Manipur high court was cleared in October 2023 after a delay of more than three months following the collegium’s recommendation. Appointed to the Madras high court in April 2016, Justice Krishnakumar belongs to a backward community, noted the resolution, adding his appointment will ensure fair representation from the Madras high court, which currently has only one chief justice among the 25 high courts in the country. Justice Krishnakumar is expected to take over as the chief justice of the Manipur high court at a time when the northeastern state is grappling with a deepening crisis.
