3. The Supreme Court hasn’t had a Woman Chief Justice since its inception. Justice B V Nagarathna is expected to become the first Women Chief Justice in 2027.

7. In absolute numbers, the number of women judges has gone up from 29 in 2021 to 45 in 2023.

8. The lowest number of REAL WOMEN is 9 percent for the Supreme Court and the highest is 24 percent for Madras High Court. It is the Delhi and Madras high courts that improve the average number.

West always used to mock Russia's economy by comparing it to Italy, showing that despite its large geography Russian economy could be slightly better than a small country like Italy only..!!!
