Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Tuesday announced the formation of a three-member committee to look into the proposal to impeach former Delhi High Court judge Yashwant Varma, embroiled in the cash recovery row.
The committee will comprise Supreme Court judge Aravind Kumar, Madras HC Chief Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava and jurist B V Acharya to probe charges against Justice Varma.
The Lok Sabha Speaker made the announcement after accepting a motion backed by 146 MPs seeking the impeachment of Varma, after a large amount of cash was discovered at his residence.
