In a recent development from the judiciary, the Supreme Court collegium has recommended the transfer of Justice Sushrut Arvind Dharmadhikari, a sitting judge at the High Court of Madhya Pradesh, to the Kerala High Court. The decision comes following a series of meetings by the collegium, which is led by the Chief Justice of India, Sanjiv Khanna.
The collegium’s deliberation included three significant meetings that took place on March 20, March 24, and April 3, 2025. According to a statement released on the Supreme Court’s official website, these meetings culminated in the decision to recommend Justice Dharmadhikari for the transfer.
This move is part of a routine process aimed at promoting better administration of justice and addressing the needs of various high courts across the country. Transfers are typically influenced by factors such as case load distribution, the expertise of the judges, and sometimes personal requests from the judges themselves.
