Suraz India Trust vs Union Of India & Anr

The Supreme Court addressed the constitutional validity of the collegium system for appointing judges under Article 124(2) of the Constitution of India. The Court held that the method of appointment as per Article 124(2) does not mandate a collegium and allows the President to consult any judge deemed necessary, thereby questioning the previous judgments that effectively amended the Constitution without parliamentary approval. The matter was referred to a larger bench for further consideration of these constitutional issues.
