These recommendations include 36 names sent by eight high courts for appointment as judges and 25 names sent by five high courts for elevation of additional judges to permanent judges.
The recommendations were sent to the SC collegium when Justice J S Khehar was the chief justice of India. He demitted office on August 27 and Justice Dipak Misra took over as the new CJI the next day.
