Stung by criticism of being on "vacation" for seven weeks during summer, the Supreme Court, with the approval of the President of India, has amended its rules to introduce "partial working days" in place of the term "summer vacation," a move that seeks to highlight the fact that some benches continue to operate even during the court's annual summer recess.
This modification, announced through a Gazette notification on Thursday, aims to counter public and governmental perceptions that the court remains entirely inactive during its seven-week break from late May to mid-July. Effective from 2025, this new terminology will appear on the Supreme Court calendar, replacing "summer vacation".
