In the revolt against Chief Justice of India Deepak Mishra, the Supreme Judge of the Supreme Court comprising four judges of the press conference, Justice J. Chelameswar will retire today. Chelameswar worked for almost seven years in the Supreme Court. After the retirement of Chelameswar, a major change will be seen in the Supreme Court's Collegium.
