Need good judges’, SC declines to entertain plea for doubling the judges.
New Delhi: The Supreme Court Tuesday declined to entertain a plea seeking to double the number of judges in the high courts and trial courts, saying more judges does not mean more disposal, instead good judges are required.
A bench headed by Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud and comprising Justice P.S. Narasimha told the petitioner, advocate Ashwini Upadhyay, that doubling the number of judges is not the solution to address pendency of cases.
“More judges do not mean more disposal, you need good judges,” the Chief Justice told Upadhyay.
