Justice Jitendra Kumar Maheshwari was on Monday sworn-in as the Chief Justice of Andhra Pradesh High Court. Governor Biswabhusan Harich­andan administered the oath of office to Justice Maheshwari at a public function in Vijayawada.

However, after the main function, the Governor had to administer the oath a second time inside the VIP room of Tummalapalli Vari Kshetrayya Kalakshetram, as Justice Maheshwari erroneously read “Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh” while being sworn-in the first time at the open ceremony. Inside the VIP room, Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, judges of the High Court and state Chief Secretary L V Subrahmany­am were present when the mistake was corrected. Governor’s Secretary Mukesh Kumar Meena pointed out the mistake in the oath-taking and got it corrected.
