Supreme Court cuts judge eligibility practice period from 3 years to 1

Former Justice Vipin Sanghi has argued in favour of retaining the original three-year practice period. However, lawyers Vivek Narayan Sharma and Siddharth Sijoria believe the new training-focused model can still produce competent judges.
