“We lost four members of our armed forces a few days ago. So as we celebrate Christmas, let us not forget those on the borders who are spending these cold mornings protecting us and our nation. When we sing, we also sing for them in celebration,” he told at the court gathering.

DY Chandrachud, 64, has been the CJI since November 22 and will retire in November 2024.
