Justice Bhushan Ramkrishna Gavai is set to become the 52nd Chief Justice of India (CJI) on May 14, succeeding Justice Sanjiv Khanna, who currently holds the top judicial post in the country.
Justice Gavai has played a significant role in landmark constitutional judgments. He was part of the five-judge bench that upheld the abrogation of Article 370 in December 2023, effectively ending Jammu and Kashmir's special status.
