What to Focus On

  • There are 25 High Courts in India.
  • One High Court is provided for every State, but Parliament can group States under one High Court.
  • Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh share one High Court at Chandigarh.

  • A High Court has one Chief Justice and other judges fixed by Parliament.
  • A temporary judge may be called from a Subordinate Court for extra work.
  • A temporary judge can serve for not more than two years.

  • The President appoints the Chief Justice of a High Court.
  • For the Chief Justice, consultation is with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and the Governor.
  • For other judges, consultation is with the Chief Justice of India, the Governor and the Chief Justice of the High Court.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A High Court exists separately for every State, so every State must have its own High Court.

The Chief Justice of a High Court and the other judges are appointed in exactly the same way, with the same consultation list.

High Court judges can be removed by a simple majority in Parliament or by the Governor.
