About the Supreme Court Collegium
The Collegium System is a group of senior judges, led by the Chief Justice of India, that selects judges for appointments and transfers in High Courts and the Supreme Court.
Their recommendations are then sent to the Central Government for final approval.
The current Collegium, under CJI BR Gavai, carefully reviews the qualifications, experience, and seniority of judges before recommending them for key positions like Chief Justices.
Why This Matters
Appointing Chief Justices is a very important part of the justice system in India.
The Chief Justice leads a High Court and plays a big role in managing the court’s work, improving case speed, and ensuring fairness.
With these new appointments, these High Courts are expected to work more efficiently.
