- Twenty-one Supreme Court judges, including CJI Sanjiv Khanna, have disclosed their financial assets and liabilities on the top court’s website.
- The list of assets of the 21 out of a total 33 serving judges of the court has been released.
- The publication of assets followed a unanimous resolution of the Full Court on April 1.
- Unlike politicians and bureaucrats, judges do not have to mandatorily put their assets in the public domain.
- In 2019, a Constitution Bench had held that the disclosure of assets of the judges would “not impinge upon the personal information and right to privacy of the judges” if it served public interest.
