Guwahati: Justice Ashutosh Kumar was formally sworn in as the Chief Justice of the Gauhati High Court on Monday in a ceremony held at Raj Bhavan.

The oath of office was administered by Assam Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya.

Justice Kumar brings with him extensive judicial experience, having served on the benches of both the Patna and Delhi High Courts.

His appointment marks a new chapter in the Gauhati High Court’s leadership.

The swearing-in ceremony was attended by several dignitaries, including Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

“Attended the oath-taking ceremony of Justice Ashutosh Kumar, who has been sworn in as the Chief Justice of the Gauhati High Court. My best wishes for his tenure,” the Chief Minister wrote in a post on X.

Born on October 1, 1966, Justice Kumar completed his schooling at St. Michael’s High School in Patna.

He was appointed as a judge of the Patna High Court on May 15, 2014. After a brief tenure at the Delhi High Court beginning January 7, 2015, he was repatriated to the Patna High Court on November 24, 2017.
