Justice Chandrachud Expresses Concerns Over Only 1 Female Judge In SC

Since the Supreme Court is functioning with only one woman justice at present, apex court judge Justice DY Chandrachud has termed it "deeply worrying". Addressing virtual farewell event for Justice Indu Malhotra, whose retirement brought the female judges count to one, Justice Chandrachud called for "serious introspection" in this regard. He said India's diversity should be reflected in the "make-up of our court" as well. Justice Indu became famous for decriminalising homosexuality through her judgement.
