The Rajya Sabha Secretariat confirmed receiving the petition from 61 MPs and said a decision on its validity will be taken in the next two days after examining the matter.
But experts said, under the Judges Enquiry Act, 1968, the petition is bound to be admitted.
The petition, mainly signed by TDP and Left MPs, alleged that Justice C V Nagarjuna Reddy committed atrocities against a Dalit principal junior civil judge in Kadappa district to allegedly put pressure on him in a criminal case.
Hundred members of the Lok Sabha or 50 members of the Rajya Sabha have to sign the petition of impeachment.
