The Supreme Court has reserved its verdict on a plea by Allahabad High Court judge Yashwant Varma challenging the parliamentary committee formed to probe corruption charges against him. Varma's lawyers argued the committee's formation was procedurally flawed, citing the Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman's rejection of an impeachment motion. The court questioned the argument that the Deputy Chairman lacked authority, drawing parallels to the Vice President acting as President. The bench also denied Varma an extension to respond to the committee's charges.
