Lead Story
Justice Sanjiv Khanna has been sworn in as the 51st Chief Justice of India, succeeding Justice D Y Chandrachud, who retired on Sunday, November 10. The oath of office was administered by President Droupadi Murmu at a ceremony held at Rashtrapati Bhavan on Monday. Justice Khanna will hold office until May 13, 2025, marking a tenure of just over six months.
Justice Khanna’s career path has been distinctive within India’s judiciary. Elevated to the Supreme Court in January 2019, he is one of the few judges who reached the apex court without serving as a Chief Justice of any High Court. His legal career began in 1983 as an advocate with the Bar Council of Delhi, practicing initially in district courts before moving to the High Court of Delhi and various tribunals.
