Pushed by the court to either clear names for judgeship expeditiously or be ready for unpalatable order, the Centre on Monday told SC that it cleared 70 names forwarded by high courts and sent to the SC collegium and also took the decision to transfer 12 HC judges out of 26 recommended. It also said that the government would soon implement collegium recommendations for appointment of the Chief Justice of Manipur along with appointment of five judges in different HCs out of 19 names recommended.
