"We need to strengthen the process so that the selection and appointment to the post of District Judge ensures quality.
With quality comes integrity and with integrity, outcomes are fruitful", the five judge bench was further told.
A bench comprising Chief Justice of India B R Gavai and Justices K Vinod Chandran and N V Anjaria on August 11 had framed a second related question for the Constitution Bench.
The decision to refer the matter to a Constitution Bench means that the Supreme Court will revisit the scope and meaning of Article 233(2).
This provision governs the appointment of District Judges and seeks to balance opportunities between members of the Bar and those in the judicial service.
