KUPWARA — The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh has proposed the dismissal of Vishais Kumar Parihar, currently serving as Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) in Handwara. This decision follows an enquiry into his conduct during his tenure as Sub Judge in Surankote.
The court's order, issued on July 23, 2024, stems from a report dated November 30, 2023, by the Enquiry Judge. The Full Court accepted this report in its meeting on July 20, 2024, and proposed a major punishment for Parihar. Consequently, he has been attached to the office of Registrar Judicial in Jammu with immediate effect.
It states, "In the interim, the Sub Judge of Kupwara will assume the additional charge of CJM Handwara until further orders."
The order was signed by Shahzad Azeem, Registrar General, and copies were forwarded to various judicial and administrative officials to ensure compliance and necessary actions.
