Koka Subba Rao

Koka Subba Rao (born 15 July 1902 – 6 May 1976) was the ninth Chief Justice of India (1958–1967). He also served as the Chief Justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court.

Early life

He was born at Rajahmundry on the banks of Godavari River on 15 July 1902 in a Velama family. His father, a lawyer, died early. Rao graduated from the Government Arts College, Rajamundry and studied law at Madras Law College. He was a good sportsman.

Professional life

He joined the office of his father-in-law, P. Venkata Raman Rao Naidu, who was junior of the Andhra Kesari Prakasam Pantulu. He was recruited as District Munsif and worked for a few months in Bapatla, Guntur district.

After Venkata Raman Rao was elevated as Judge of Madras High Court, Subbarao partnered with gifted brother-in-law P. V. Rajamannar, who later became Advocate-General and Chief Justice of Madras High Court. They commanded the cream of legal work from all parts of composite Madras state. He was elevated to the Bench in 1948.

After the separation of Andhra, Rajaji wanted to send Govinda Menon, a senior judge to head the Andhra Pradesh High Court to be established in Guntur in 1954. But Prakasam insisted on having Subbarao as the Special Officer to facilitate the formation of High Court. Automatically he became the Chief Justice.

Kōka

Kōka (弘化) was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, literally "year name") after Tenpō and before Kaei. This period spanned the years from December 1844 through February 1848. The reigning emperors were Ninkō-tennō (仁孝天皇) and Kōmei-tennō (孝明天皇).

Change of era

December 2, 1844 (Kōka gannen (弘化元年)): The new era name of Kōka, meaning "Becoming Wide or Vast", was created to mark a fire at Edo Castle in Tenpō 15.

The nengo was not changed concurrent with the accession of Emperor Komei; instead, the Kōka era was retained until about a year after the new emperor was enthroned.

Events of the Kōka era

1847 (Kōka 4): A major earthquake was recorded.

1848 (Kōka 5): The last subscription noh of the premodern era.

During these years, Hiroshige began making a series of prints showing beautiful women in contexts of famous places.
