The Union Government has officially notified the transfer of Justice Alok Aradhe, the Chief Justice of the Telangana High Court, to the Bombay High Court. Justice Aradhe will assume his duties as the Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court following this announcement.
Justice Aradhe will replace Justice DK Upadhyaya, who has been appointed as Chief Justice of Delhi High Court.
The move comes as part of routine judicial appointments aimed at ensuring effective judicial administration across the country.
Justice Aradhe, who has held several prominent judicial positions during his career, was elevated as the Chief Justice of the Telangana High Court in 2023. Known for his expertise in constitutional and civil matters, his leadership in the Bombay High Court is expected to bring further efficiency to the judicial process.
The Supreme Court Collegium had recommended the transfer, which has now been confirmed by the President of India after consultation with relevant authorities. Justice Aradhe’s successor in the Telangana High Court will be announced shortly.
