The Delhi High Court swears in seven new judges in a ceremony held on its premises. After administering the oath, the Chief Justice congratulates the appointees, according to reports.
The appointments increase the court’s working strength to 50. One outlet notes that the High Court’s sanctioned strength is 60, indicating room for further vacancies. Another report frames the move as part of a broader set of judicial appointments: it says 14 judges are being appointed across four High Courts, of which Delhi’s seven judges are part.
Across sources, there is agreement on the number of judges added, the presence of a swearing-in process at the High Court, and the resulting total strength. The main difference lies in emphasis: some focus on the ceremony and congratulatory remarks, while others highlight the wider context of appointments to multiple High Courts.
