Who is Justice Yashwant Varma?

The Supreme Court Collegium decided to transfer Justice Yashwant Verma back to Allahabad High Court after unaccounted cash was found at his official bungalow.
A large amount of unaccounted cash was discovered following a fire incident when emergency services were called to the bungalow, which Justice Verma was not occupying at the time.
Discussions are ongoing about initiating impeachment proceedings against Justice Verma, as some Collegium members believe this is necessary to uphold the judiciary's integrity.
Concerns were raised within the Collegium that merely transferring Justice Verma could damage the judiciary's reputation and undermine public confidence in the legal system.
