New Delhi: Retired Chattisgarh High Court
judge Dilip Rao Saheb Deshmukh would take charge as the
chairman of the Company Law Board, which fell vacant after the
arrest of the presiding CLB head R Vasudevan by the CBI, from
Friday.
"He was supposed to join by the first of December but we
have requested him to take over day after tomorrow given the
situation now. I am given to understand that he will fly in
tomorrow and take over day after," said Corporate Affairs

Vasudevan, who was both a member and the presiding
chairman of the CLB, was arrested by CBI on charges of
bribery.
