The Supreme Court Collegium, led by Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud, has recommended a one-year extension for nine additional judges of the Calcutta High Court. The collegium, which also includes Justices Sanjiv Khanna and BR Gavai, is responsible for deciding appointments and extensions for high court judges. Earlier this year, in April, the Calcutta High Court Collegium had forwarded a unanimous recommendation to appoint Justices Biswaroop Chowdhury, Partha Sarathi Sen, Prasenjit Biswas, Uday Kumar, Ajay Kumar Gupta, Supratim Bhattacharya, Partha Sarathi Chatterjee, Apurba Sinha Ray, and Md. Shabbar Rashidi as permanent judges. The Supreme Court Collegium’s recent recommendation extends their terms by one year.
