Justice Gogoi was appointed as the 46th Chief Justice of India on Thursday. He will take oath in the presence of President Ram Nath Kovind on 3 October. Justice Gogoi succeeds CJI Dipak Misra.
Justice Gogoi, known for his no-nonsense approach, will have a term of 13 months and 15 days.
He was appointed as a judge of the Supreme Court on 23 April 2012.
Along with the three senior-most judges of the apex court – Justices J Chelameswar, Madan B Lokur and Kurian Joseph – Justice Gogoi held an unprecedented press conference in January this year raising, among other things, questions over assigning cases to different judges by Chief Justice Misra.
