The Supreme Court Collegium, in its meeting held on June 2, 2026, approved the proposal for the appointment of three judicial officers as Judges of the High Court of Himachal Pradesh.

The officers recommended for elevation are:

• Chirag Bhanu Singh

• Bhupesh Sharma

• Yogesh Jaswal

The recommendation was made by the Supreme Court Collegium as part of the ongoing process of strengthening the judiciary and filling vacancies in the High Courts. Following the Collegium's approval, the names will now be forwarded to the Central Government for further processing and issuance of warrants of appointment.

The elevation of the three judicial officers is expected to enhance the strength of the Himachal Pradesh High Court and assist in reducing case pendency by ensuring the availability of additional judges for judicial work.
