Justice PB Parale takes oath as Supreme Court judge, Apex Court at full strength

Chief Justice of the Karnataka High Court, Justice Prasanna B Varale, was on Thursday sworn-in as a judge of the Supreme Court.

Justice Varale is the senior-most Judge belonging to a Scheduled Caste and the only Chief Justice of a High Court in the country belonging to a Scheduled Caste.

The Supreme Court Collegium, headed by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, had last week recommended the elevation of Justice Parale.

The recommendation was made towards the vacancy which arose in the Supreme Court following the retirement of Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul last month.

Other members of the Supreme Court Collegium included Justice Sanjiv Khanna, Justice BR Gavai, Justice Surya Kant and Justice Aniruddha Bose.
