Justice Akshay Mehta has been appointed as a member of the 2 member Nanavati Commission which will carry out the investigation on the post-Godhra Gujarat riots.

Jugde Mehta who had service with Gujarat HC and retired in 2007 has been appointed by the Gujarat government following the death of Justice Shah who was one of the member of the panel. The commission which was formed in 2002 to probe on post-Godhra riots has been conducting the inquiry over the past years. 

The Commission led by Justice G T Nanavati is expected to resume the hearing on the cases shortly.
