Justice Sanjiv Khanna took oath as the 51st Chief Justice of India (CJI) on Monday. About 50 years ago, Justice HR Khanna, Sanjiv Khanna's uncle and then the senior-most SC judge, was denied the CJI's post by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
CJI Sanjiv Khanna, who has served as a Supreme Court judge since January 2019, was a part of several landmark judgments such as upholding the sanctity of EVMs, scrapping of the electoral bonds scheme, upholding the abrogation of Article 370 and grant of interim bail to former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal.
President of India Droupadi Murmu administered the oath of office to Justice Khanna at the Rashtrapati Bhavan. Apart from the prime minister and the former CJI, Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.
