The Supreme Court has requested the Ministry of Housing to vacate Bungalow No. 5, still occupied by former CJI Chandrachud eight months post-retirement. His successors declined the residence.
The Supreme Court administration has written to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), seeking the immediate vacation of Bungalow No. 5 on Krishna Menon Marg, which continues to be occupied by former Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud, even eight months after his retirement.
Justice Chandrachud, who served as the 50th CJI from November 2022 to November 2024, has been living on the premises even after retiring. His two successors, Justices Sanjiv Khanna and incumbent Bhushan R Gavai, have declined to move into the bungalow, choosing to remain in their previously allotted residences.
