A Delhi High Court judge's transfer has triggered a political row. The judge concerned is Justice S Muralidhar who recently brought to task the Centre and the Delhi Police over their lackadaisical efforts in controlling the violence that gripped several parts of  Northeast Delhi for 4 days.

And his transfer notification came late at 11 pm on 26 February leading many to question if the timing perhaps had anything to do with his criticism of the Delhi police and the Centre.

However, the Supreme Court's collegium had recommended Justice Muralidhar's transfer on 12 February, about 2 weeks before violence in Delhi Northeast localities began. But it's the notification that came late at 11 pm on 26 February. So, what exactly is controversial in this notification? Why did it rake up a row? Tune in to The Big Story.
