Shekhar Bobby Saraf, an NLSIU Bangalore 1996 graduate, has been one of five appointed as permanent judge of the Calcutta high court in the latest law ministry notification of judicial appointments.
Saraf had been appointed as additional judge of the high court in 2017, as the first national law university (NLU) graduate to have made the leap.
Saraf had been appointed the law ministry’s senior panel counsel at the Calcutta high court in 2010 and had co-founded a stipend support for NLSIU freshers in 2016.

It is very rare for additional judges to be given such an extension. Can you please report why this has been done to Justice Banerjee? Also, can you report on any other instances where the collegium has given such extensions and does the collegium ever decline to make an additional judge permanent? I recall Mr. Neeraj Kishan Kaul had voluntarily decided to give up his position as additional judge of the Delhi High Court to return to private practice (and after that he moved to the Supreme Court).
Justice Banerjee deserves better coverage from you because he also one of very, very few Indian judges with a Wikipedia profile (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protik_Prakash_Banerjee).
And how pray do you arrive at the conclusion that P P Banerjee is someone special? Have you conducted an assessment of his performance versus other additional judges? Do you chat with him and his brother judges for lunch daily?
Senseless comments by fanboys who saw him talk for one hour in a class and are bedazzled.
