Hi,
The judges of Supreme Court of India are appointed by the President on the advice of the Prime Minister and in consultation with the Chief Justice of India (CJI) under Article 124(2) of the Constitution of India (Constitution).
Judges of a High Court (HC)are also appointed by the President on the advice of CJI, the Governor of the state and the Chief Justice of the designated HC under Article 217 of the consitution.
