JUDGES' CHILDREN IN JUDICIAL EXAM?
15 selected out of 659 — 2 successful candidates were judges' daughters
Law Minister sought examination of nepotism allegations
based on The Indian Express, June 26, 2015, reporting on the Delhi Judicial Services Examination 2014. The article says 659 candidates appeared and only 15 were selected, while noting that the topper and another successful candidate were daughters of sitting Delhi HC judges
.Indian Express report from 2017 where the Supreme Court Bar Association president publicly asked why “most of the judges [were] sons of former judges” and claimed 80% of judicial panels contained judges' sons/daughters; the then CJI disputed the implication in his response.
The Supreme Court ordered re-evaluation of the answer sheets of more than 600 candidates, including 65 sitting judicial officers who had failed the examination. A former Supreme Court judge, Justice P. V. Reddi, was appointed to head the re-evaluation committee.
Later, 11 additional candidates were declared successful after the re-evaluation. The Supreme Court also considered suggestions aimed at making Delhi trial-judge selection more transparent and less susceptible to nepotism, including disclosure of selected candidates and access to answer sheets under RTI.
