In a first high-profile death due to coronavirus in the country, former Chattisgarh High Court Chief Justice and Lokpal member Justice Ajay Kumar Tripathi (retd) passed away at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences on May 2.
Justice Tripathi, a former Chief Justice of Chhattisgarh High Court, breathed his last at the Jai Prakash Narayan Apex Trauma Centre. He was 62.
Justice Tripathi was admitted in AIIMS since April 2. He was one of the four judicial members of the Lokpal. His daughter, infected with coronavirus, is still admitted at AIIMS.
Justice Tripathi had tested positive for coronavirus last month, and he was in the ICU since his admission at the AIIMS. He was later shifted to the trauma centre, which provides treatment mostly to victims of road accidents, but it was recently converted to a dedicated COVID-19 hospital.
He was one of the four judicial members of the anti-corruption Ombudsman, Lokpal.
Justice Tripathi had also served as an Additional Advocate General in Bihar. Later, he was elevated as Additional Judge of the Patna High Court and later became the Chief Justice. He was appointed the Judicial Member of the Lokpal on March 23 last year.
