The Supreme Court collegium, led by Chief Justice NV Ramana, has made a recommendation of the names of nine judges for the elevation to the apex court.
The recommendations had Justice BV Nagarathna’s name who is currently a judge in the Karnataka High Court. The other two women judges in the recommended list are Justice Hima Kohi and Justice Bela Trivedi.
