Exp. Union Cabinet Approves Increase in Supreme Court Judge Strength from 33 to 37
The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved increasing the sanctioned strength of judges in the Supreme Court of India from 33 to 37 (excluding the Chief Justice of India).
The decision will enable the introduction of the Supreme Court (Number of Judges) Amendment Bill, 2026, to amend the Supreme Court (Number of Judges) Act, 1956.
The move aligns with Article 124 of the Constitution and continues the gradual expansion of the Supreme Court’s strength over the years to enhance judicial capacity.
The strength of the Supreme Court has been revised multiple times since Independence.

Further expansions raised the strength to 30 in 2008 and later to 33 in 2019. The current proposal seeks to take this number to 37.
