Justice Arindam Lodh (born 25 March 1963) is an Indian Judge at the High Court of Tripura since May 2018.[1] He is due to retire not earlier than March 2025.
Lodh enrolled with the Bar in 1988 and practised at the Agartala Bench of the Gauhati High Court. After the establishment of the full-fledged Tripura High Court in 2013, he continued to appear there till his elevation to the Bench. Lodh represented the Indian Oil Corporation, Khadi and Village Industries Commission, Northeast Frontier Railways and Prasar Bharati as their Standing Counsel at different times in his legal journey. He was also on the panel of lawyers for the Union Public Service Commission for Tripura region. In 2009, Government of India appointed him as Assistant Solicitor General for the Agartala Bench of the Gauhati High Court and a senior panel Counsel. He specializes in Civil, Constitutional, Criminal, Intellectual Property, Labour, Service and Tax law.[1]
A Supreme Court Collegium consisting of Justices Dipak Misra CJI, Jasti Chelameswar and Ranjan Gogoi recommended to the President of India in November 2017 that Lodh be made a Judge of the Tripura High Court. This was done overruling the Indian Intelligence Bureau's seemingly adverse comments about his professional competence.[2] Lodh assumed charge of his office on 7 May 2018. The oath was administered to him by the then Chief Justice Ajay Rastogi.[3]
