List of Chief Justices of India
Other notable judges
Since the appointment to the office of the Chief Justice of India has been by
convention on basis of seniority, the procedure has been criticized by various juristsand constitutional experts as being averse to talent and non-recognition leadingabilities. On this count, various judges of the Supreme Court are named who showedinspiring leadership ability, but because of the seniority rule could not become theChief Justice of India. Some of these names have been:
Justice K. K. Mathew for his impeccable legal scholarship and various decisive judgements
Justice H.R. Khanna who delivered the landmark dissent in Habeas Corpus case. Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer known for his human right approach and literary merit
in decision-making. Justice R.S. Sarkaria known for his immaculate understanding of Administrative
law et cetera . Justice O.P. Chinnappa Reddy for his landmark decisions on constitutional law.
S. H. Kapadia
Sarosh Homi Kapadia (Gujarati: સરોશ હોમી કાપિડયા) (Hindi: ) (born 29
September 1947[1]) is the thirty-eighth and current Chief Justice of India.[2]
Early life
S. H. Kapadia belonged to a gentle lower middle-class Parsi family from the Khetwadi-Girgaum region of Bombay . His father was a clerk in a defence establishment, hismother a homemaker. Kapadia completed his BA and LLB and immediately beganworking. Higher education would have been a luxury. He acknowledged his humblebeginnings in a letter he wrote to Justice V R Krishna Iyer recently. “I come from apoor family. I started my career as a class IV employee and the only asset I possess isintegrity...” he said. He joined Gagrat & Co, a law firm as a clerk and later, went towork for highly respected labour lawyer Feroze Damania. Soon after, the family movedto Andheri, Mumbai. He married Shahnaz with whom he to has two sons.

The young Sarosh may not have been rich but what he did possess was ambition anddetermination to become a judge. He became counsel for the income tax department in1974, aged 27. He also appeared for the then Bombay Municipal Corporation inmatters concerning rateable value and octroi. He represented the Maharashtragovernment and several public sector undertakings (PSUs) until he was appointed ahigh court judge. As a judge of the Bombay High Court, he decided matters rangingfrom environmental to banking, M&As, industrial disputes, taxation and so on, butdeveloped a reputation for his expertise on commercial and tax law.
The best thing that ever happened to him was the stock scam of 1999 involving brokerKetan Parekh. He was appointed judge of the special court established under the Trialof Offences Relating to Transaction in Securities Act in 1999. He played an importantrole in the proceedings of the Joint Parliamentary Committee constituted to investigatethe stock scam.
On August 5, 2003, he was appointed Chief Justice of the Uttarakhand High Courtand in December of that year, he was elevated to the Supreme Court, thus serving
only a very short tenure as chief justice of a high court.
In the Supreme Court, Kapadia delivered some landmark judgements which includeda decision relating to succession of property in April 30, 2005 in which he ruled outthe possibility of conducting the DNA test.
He was part of the three-member Bench that decided income tax case of Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad. The verdict went in favour of Prasad but JusticeKapadia gave a dissenting judgement saying the income tax department should havefiled an appeal against the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) order.
There are some controversies that, however, are inexplicable. Justice A P Shah of the
Delhi High Court (who was part of the bench that gave the judgment on homosexuals’ rights) was to have been elevated to the Supreme Court. Kapadia was the chief dissenting voice in the five-member collegium that decides who should or should notmove up to the Supreme Court. Some say this was because of rivalry from the dayswhen he and Shah were judges in the Bombay High Court. Others say Kapadia wasdisapproving of two judgments Shah had delivered as Chief Justice of the Madras HighCourt.
Now, the biggest professional challenge for the man who has spent his entire lifeworking towards becoming a judge is to decide who should scrutinise the Chief Justiceof India and whether he should come under the purview of the Right to InformationAct. This has far-reaching implications for both law and justice.
Kapadia is conscious that he has to uphold both equity and fairness. On the issue of honour killings, he has said justice by khaps (local communities) is a social not a legalmatter. On the other hand, throughout his life, he has ruled in favour of tribals andthe dispossessed.
India’s legal establishment is weighed down by work, and central issues like policereform have temporarily taken a back seat. Crusading judges have their drawbacks,

but Kapadia has the advantage of being utterly focussed. Hopefully, the legal systemwill benefit from this.[3][4] [5]
