Dr. M.Veerappa Moily, Minister of Law and Justice informed the Rajya Sabha in a written reply that the Lok Sabha passed the Supreme Court (Number of Judges) Amendment Bill, 2008 on 22nd December, 2008 and it received the assent of the President on 5th February, 2009.

The Supreme Court Registry has informed that “the Judges have not been elevated to the Bench of the Supreme Court so far due to non-availability of accommodation and that delay in appointment of Judges is resulting in accumulation of cases” the Minister informed the Rajya Sabha.
