The Supreme Court maintained that the Chief Justice of India
(CJI) is the master of the roster and has the prerogative and authority to
allocate cases to different benches of the Apex Court, and also said that the
CJI occupies the role of first among equals and is empowered to exercise
leadership in administration of court which includes assignment of cases. The judgment
came on a plea of former law minister Shanti Bhushan challenging the existing
roster practice of allocation of cases in the apex court by the Chief Justice
of India.
