CJI DY Chandrachud Inaugurates National Judicial Museum & Archive At Supreme Court

Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud today (November 7) inaugurated the National Judicial Museum and Archive.

The National Judicial Museum exhibits a detailed history of the Supreme Court of India, the ancient justice system and the historical developments as well an interactive AI Lawyer from the new age technology. Other sitting judges also attended the event.

Notably, the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) had resolved to boycott the function scheduled today at 10 AM. In a resolution dated November 6, 2024, the majority of the Executive Committee (EC) of the SCBA reiterated its earlier demand that the vacant space in the High-Security Zone of the Supreme Court grounds be allocated to the SCBA to establish a library and cafe/lounge for its members, rather than a museum.

Here is a look at the new initiative :
