The Centre has accepted recommendation of the Supreme Court collegium led by Chief Justice of India NV Ramana to elevate Gauhati High Court Chief Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia and Gujarat High Court Judge, Justice Jamshed Burjor Pardiwala as Supreme Court judges.

He was a Sanskrit scholar and an Ayurvedacharya.
