NEW DELHI: Fifty-four members of Rajya Sabha have petitioned its chairman for removal of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana High Court judge C V Nagarjuna Reddy for alleged interference in the judicial process and hurling casteist abuses against a junior Dalit judge. The MPs have given a notice of a motion for removal of Justice Reddy, claiming there was “enough prima facie material” to start the process of inquiry under the Judges (Inquiry) Act, 1968 against him.
