CJI BR Gavai said on Friday that the Supreme Court collegium cannot dictate a high court collegium to recommend a particular name for judgeship, emphasizing that both are constitutional courts and neither is superior to the other.

The CJI was speaking at a function organised by the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) to celebrate the country's 79th Independence Day on Friday, where SCBA president Vikas Singh urged the Supreme Court collegium to also consider lawyers practising in the apex court for high court judgeships, irrespective of whether they have practised there.

"Ultimately, even the Supreme Court Collegium can't dictate the high court collegium to recommend the names...the SC is not a superior court to the HC," CJI Gavai said.
