Chief Justice of India N V Ramana will administer the oath of office to new Judges in the auditorium of the Court's Additional Building Complex.
With the addition of two judges, the Supreme Court will start functioning at its full strength of 34 from Monday.
The Centre today notified the appointment of Gauhati High Court Chief Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia and Gujarat High Court judge Jamshed Burjor Pardiwala as Supreme Court judges.
On May 5, 2022, the Supreme Court collegium had recommended the elevation of Justices Sudhanshu Dhulia and Jamshed Burjor Pardiwala as Supreme Court judges.
