I don't think he was a good Chief Justice in the Delhi High Court and has not left a mark in any way, either with his judgments or administrative control of the High Court and lower judiciary. He chose to remain non-controversial by doing as little as he could. He frequently did not hold court or held court for only half a day. The impression created is that his Delhi High Court posting was just a stepping stone and waiting hall to/ for the Supreme Court. A disappointing Chief Justice for the Delhi High Court.
