This move follows recent concerns about judicial integrity, particularly after reports surfaced about the alleged discovery of cash at the official premises of Justice Yashwant Varma during his tenure as a Delhi High Court judge.

"The process for publishing these asset declarations is currently being finalized."

As of now, all Supreme Court judges have submitted their asset declarations. However, these records have not yet been made public. With this decision, the judiciary aims to promote accountability and maintain transparency in the legal system.
