The CJI’s recommendation came after a letter from the law minister Arjun Ram Meghwal, who asked him to nominate his successor Justice Surya Kant as the 58rd CJI on November 24, 2025. It is the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and convention that the sitting CJI recommend the senior most Judge (after himself) as the next CJI.
