Seven judicial officers were sworn in as additional judges of the Delhi High Court (India's capital city's principal court) on Monday, 21 September 2026, bringing its total strength to 50. Chief Justice D.K. Upadhyaya administered the oath to Justices Nivedita Anil Sharma, Nisha Sahay Saxena, Sanjay Sharma, Bharat Parashar, Aditi Choudhary, Dinesh Bhatt, and Arun Bhardwaj, all previously serving in the district judiciary in New Delhi. The appointments, recommended by the Supreme Court collegium and notified by the central government on 19 September, leave the court still ten judges short of its sanctioned strength of 60.
