Madan Lokur

Madan Bhimarao Lokur (born 31 December 1953) is an Indian jurist.

In May 2012, Andhra Pradesh High Court Divisional Bench consisting of Chief Justice Madan Lokur and Justice P. V. Sanjay Kumar struck down the government of India's decision to allocate 4.5% sub-quota (within the 27% Other Backward Classes quota) for minorities.

[6][7] The court criticised the decision by saying, "In fact, we must express our anguish at the rather casual manner in which the entire issue has been taken up by the central government.

"[8] As the Chief Justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court, Lokur suspended Special CBI Judge T Pattabhirama Rao and ordered his prosecution in a Mining scam case relating to the Reddy brothers.

The complaint against the judge was that he granted bail to G. Janardhana Reddy after receiving a bribe.
