Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

The head of a High Court is its Chief Justice, appointed by a warrant of the President of India on the recommendation of the Supreme Court collegium. Chief Justices are periodically transferred between High Courts — often as part of a paired swap between two courts — as routine judicial administration, so identifying ‘the current’ Chief Justice of a specific court on a specific date requires checking the actual timeline of such transfers rather than assuming a single, permanent holder.

The official Rajasthan High Court roster dated 1 June 2025 lists Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava as its Chief Justice — an office he had held since taking oath as the 42nd Chief Justice of the Rajasthan High Court on 6 February 2024. On 26 May 2025 the Supreme Court collegium recommended swapping the Chief Justices of the Rajasthan and Madras High Courts, but this swap was implemented only in July 2025: Justice K. R. Shriram took oath as the 43rd Chief Justice of Rajasthan High Court on 21 July 2025, the same day Justice Shrivastava was sworn in as Chief Justice of the Madras High Court. So on the date the question specifies — June 2025 — Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava was still the sitting Chief Justice of the Rajasthan High Court.

The other three named judges were not the Chief Justice of the Rajasthan High Court in this period:

  • Justice Shree Chandrashekhar's parent High Court is Jharkhand; during 2025 he moved on to become Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court, not Rajasthan.

  • Justice Inderjeet Singh was a puisne (non-Chief) judge of the Rajasthan High Court, sitting at its Jaipur Bench.

  • Justice Manoj Kumar Garg was likewise a puisne judge of the Rajasthan High Court, chairing its Juvenile Justice Committee, before retiring later in 2025.

Hence Hon’ble Manindra Mohan Shrivastava is the only offered option verified as the Rajasthan High Court's Chief Justice as on June 2025.
