The five-member Supreme Court Collegium now headed by Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna has Justice AS Oka as a new member.
The reconstitution of five- and three-member collegium is a consequential event after the superannuation of former CJI DY Chandrachud on November 10.
Besides CJI Khanna, the five-member collegium, which selects apex court judges, would comprise Justices B R Gavai, Surya Kant, Hrishikesh Roy and A S Oka.
The three-member collegium, which selects high court judges, will have the CJI and Justices B R Gavai and Surya Kant as members.
The collegium system is a process for appointing and transferring judges in higher judiciary. -- PTI
