'With 30% women judges, Telangana HC set an example'

HYDERABAD: Telangana has set a new benchmark with women judges accounting for more than 30 per cent in the high court and 52 per cent in the district courts, said Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma.

Delivering his Republic Day speech on the court premises after unfurling the Tricolour on Wednesday, the CJ said: "It is a matter of pride that our high court has six women judges. This is more than 30 per cent of the current working strength of 19 judges. This is the highest ever since this high court was established."
