Telangana High Court Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has administered the oath of office to Vijaya Bhaskar Reddy at the First Court hall on the HC premises around 10 a.m. The High Court Registrar General K. Sujana first read out the notification of the President appointing the lawyer as judge.

Subsequently, the Chief Justice administered the oath of office to the new judge. With Justice Vijay Bhaskar Reddy assuming charge, the strength of judges in Telangana High Court rose to 27 in addition to the Chief Justice.

This number of judges in the High Court is likely to rise upto 33 once the President gives consent for appointment of six more lawyers as judges, whose names have been recommended by the Supreme Court Collegium for elevation as judges recently.
