Bombay High Court Swears in 14 New Judges

Fourteen new judges were sworn in at the Bombay High Court on Tuesday, with the oath being administered by the Acting Chief Justice.

This brings the total number of judges to 82.

Some of the new judges have experience representing central agencies like the ED and CBI.

Their appointments were recommended by the Supreme Court collegium on August 19 and cleared by the Central government on August 27.

Recently, three other judges were also sworn in.

This increase in judges means there are more people available to make decisions in legal cases.
