Under which Article of the Constitution can ad-hoc judges be appointed to the Supreme Court?

  • A.Article 124
  • B.Article 125
  • C.Article 127
  • D.Article 128

Answer: C

Article 127 provides for the appointment of ad hoc judges to the Supreme Court. When there is no quorum of permanent judges to hold or continue a session, the Chief Justice of India may, with the President's previous consent and after consulting the Chief Justice of the High Court concerned, request a High Court judge qualified for the Supreme Court to sit as an ad hoc judge.

Article 124 deals with the establishment and composition of the Court, 125 with judges' salaries, and 128 with the attendance of retired judges, so those are not the ad hoc provision.
