The Allahabad High Court Bar Association has raised concerns over Justice Yashwant Varma, calling for comprehensive scrutiny of his judgments and initiating impeachment proceedings after the discovery of alleged unaccounted cash at his residence.

The association, led by President Anil Tiwari, criticized the proposal to return Justice Varma to the Allahabad High Court, urging an immediate review of his past judgments at both the Allahabad and Delhi High Courts. They seek public confidence restoration through thorough examination.
