Earlier today, I called on the new Chief Justice of India, Justice U U Lalit at his official residence in New Delhi. Justice Lalit was sworn in on Saturday as the 49th Chief Justice of India.

Union Law Minister Kiren Rijiju on Saturday said he looks forward to working closely with Chief Justice of India Uday Umesh Lalit for "speedy delivery of justice."
