Lok Sabha forms 3-member panel to probe allegations against Justice Varma

A three-member panel has been set up in the Lok Sabha to begin the impeachment process of a judge. This development is considered unprecedented and historic for India's judiciary. The Lok Sabha speaker announced the formation of this panel. The issue was brought forward by the opposition a few days ago. Parliamentarians have shown significant support for the impeachment, with over 145 members signing the notice in the Lok Sabha and overwhelming support in the Rajya Sabha. The committee has been asked to submit its report as soon as possible. The judge has denied all charges and is challenging the process in the Supreme Court. The process requires a majority vote in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. The impeachment motion could come into effect in the next Parliament session.
