Delhi High Court Bolsters Ranks with Three New Judges
New Delhi, October 28, 2025: The Delhi High Court welcomed three new judges to its ranks today, as Justices Dinesh Mehta, Avneesh Jhingan, and Chandrasekharan Sudha were officially sworn in. Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyaya administered the oath of office in a ceremony held at the court.
Justices Mehta and Jhingan arrive in Delhi following transfers from the Rajasthan High Court, bringing with them experience from the western state’s judiciary. Justice Sudha joins the Delhi High Court from the Kerala High Court, further diversifying the bench.
This expansion of the Delhi High Court follows a recent influx of judicial talent, with six other judges – Justices V. Kameswar Rao, Nitin Wasudeo Sambre, Vivek Chaudhary, Om Prakash Shukla, Anil Kshetarpal, and Arun Kumar Monga – having been sworn in after their transfers from various High Courts across the country. These appointments are expected to help manage the court’s caseload and ensure the efficient administration of justice in the National Capital Territory.
