Justice D Y Chandrachud’s two-year tenure as CJI will see induction of at least 19 new Supreme Court judges, five more than the number appointed to the apex court during his father Y V Chandrachud’s record tenure of seven years and five months as CJI. CJI Chandrachud-led collegium’s immediate task is to fill seven vacancies in the SC, whose sanctioned strength is 34 judges including the CJI.
