Justice Kalpesh Satyendra Jhaveri is scheduled take oath as the chief justice of Orissa High Court on Sunday, a release issued by the High Court registry today said.
Odisha Governor Ganeshi Lal will administer the oath of office to the chief justice in the high court premises, it said.
Prior to his new assignment, Justice Jhaveri was a judge of Rajasthan High Court.
The post of Chief Justice of Orissa High Court fell vacant earlier this week when incumbent Justice Vineet Saran was elevated as a judge of the Supreme Court.
