THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Government send-off for retiring Chief Justice of Kerala High Court S Manikumar. The send-off function is at a private hotel in Kovalam. Only a few people, including the Chief Minister, will attend the function.

Usually, the government does not give send-offs to Chief Justices. The regular practice is the high court full bench giving a send-off to the retiree. The function of the High Court full bench took place last week, and the government send-off is happening after that.
