Two new judges take oath at the Supreme Court (July 2024)

Justices N. Kotiswar Singh and R. Mahadevan took oath as judges to the Supreme Court today (18 July 2024)! With their appointment, the bench is at its full sanctioned strength of 34 judges. The Collegium had recommended both names on 11 July 2024. Though factors considered by the Collegium are not codified or mandated, we know from recent recommendations that diversity of various kinds, is an important parameter. In recommending Justice Singh, the Collegium noted that he would be the first Supreme Court judge from the state of Manipur. For Justice Mahadevan, the Collegium bypassed the seniority principle to ensure representation from a backward community. How do the new appointments impact diversity at the top court? We explain!
