New Delhi: Chief Justice of India N.V Ramana a day before retiring from his office on Thursday said that he has discharged his duties as Chief Justice in whatever possible way. Justice Ramana is going to retire on August 26 upon attaining the age of superannuation.

"I hope that I stood up to the expectation which you expected from me. I discharged my duties as Chief Justice in whatever possible way. I have taken up two issues, all of you know, the infrastructure and the appointment of judges," he said at a Delhi High Court Bar Association-organised farewell event on the eve of his superannuation.

"Administration of Justice is a challenge and my experience as a Delhi High Court Chief Justice has helped me a lot to work as the Chief Justice of India", he said while addressing the farewell event.

Expressing happiness over the support he got from every member of the bar, the CJI said: "Every member of the Bar, especially in Delhi, stood in solidarity and passed a resolution supporting me. I am extremely proud and happy to have such support."
