The Supreme Court Collegium has recommended the elevation of one judicial officer to the Bombay High Court, while remitting the proposal regarding the elevation of another judicial officer to the High Court.

The High Court Collegium had recommended six judicial officers for elevation on November 28, 2017. The Supreme Court Collegium had, in September last year, decided to defer the consideration.

After perusing the complaints made against the judicial officers and the observations of the Department of Justice, the Collegium has seen it fit to elevate judicial officer PV Ganediwala as a judge of the Bombay High Court.

However, the recommendation for elevation of judicial officer SB Agrawal has been remitted to the Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court.
