Outgoing Supreme Court judge Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia says the apex court will remain the “torchbearer of freedom and justice” as he bids an emotional goodbye, recalling his love for “Hindustan.”
The SCBA President Vikas Singh urged Chief Justice Gavai to relocate the National Judicial Museum to enhance access for lawyers and the public. This move would address infrastructure issues, creating more space for lawyers’ chambers and facilitating virtual hearings, ultimately improving convenience within the Supreme Court premises.
The Supreme Court ordered a fresh recount of votes for Junior Executive Members in the SCBA elections to resolve doubts following allegations of irregularities. Despite prior recounts affirming Vikas Singh’s presidency, the Court aimed for transparency and assurance to members, while reprimanding candidate Dr. Aggarwala for frivolous accusations against the election committee.
Vikas Singh has been re-elected as President of the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) for a fourth term. Rahul Kaushik and Pragya Baghel have been elected as Vice President and Secretary, respectively. The 2025 elections emphasized women’s representation, fulfilling a Supreme Court directive, and showcased strong alumni involvement from ILS Law College, Pune.
