NEW DELHI: Former Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud has officially vacated the designated official residence of CJI, almost a month after the Supreme Court administration wrote to housing and urban affairs ministry to get the bungalow vacated and returned to the court's housing pool.
A controversy had erupted over Chandrachud's stay at the official residence of CJI at 5, Krishna Menon Marg in the national capital beyond permissible time. The former CJI had superannuated from the office on November 8, 2024.
Earlier the ex-CJI had expressed regret over the controversy, citing his daughters' medical condition and the need for a wheelchair-accessible home. He had said he was awaiting the completion of the new house before moving in. The ex-CJI, his wife and daughters Priyanka and Mahi, both of whom are persons with disabilities, were living in official CJI residence.
