On the last day of Justice S Muralidhar in the Delhi High Court, a few young lawyers present in the court praised him as an "inspiration". "You are an inspiration to all of us," one of the lawyers told Justice Muralidhar, who responded with a smile. Justice Muralidhar will take charge as judge of Punjab and Haryana High Court on March 6. The notification on Justice Muralidhar's transfer to the Punjab and Haryana High Court was put out around 11 pm. It did not mention the usual time-frame of 14 days for a judge to shift. The government said it was a routine transfer recommended by the Supreme Court collegium on February 12 and the judge's consent had been taken, as is the norm.
