Justice Nirmal Yadav honoured at college function

Rewari (Haryana), Mar 24 (PTI) Justice (retd) Nirmal Yadav, who is facing charges in the 2008 cash-at-judge's-door scam, was honoured at a college function here today. Haryana's Finance Minister Ajay Singh Yadav, who is also the younger brother of Nirmal Yadav, presided over the function.Speaking at the occasion, Nirmal Yadav, against whom the CBI filed a chargesheet in the case on March 4, said she had discharged her judicial responsibilities to the best of her competence. The cash-at-judge's door scam had rocked the Punjab and Haryana High Court, where Justice Yadav was a judge before being shifted to Uttrakhand later, after a sum of Rs 15 lakh was wrongly delivered at the residence of another HC judge on August 13, 2008, following which the latter reported the matter to the Chandigarh Police.
