Supreme Court of India 

The Supreme Court of India, established on January 28, 1950, is the highest judicial body in the country and holds the supreme authority under the Indian Constitution. It is also the most senior constitutional court with the power of judicial review.

The Court's seal features a 24-spoked wheel, inspired by the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka, symbolizing the wheel of righteousness, which represents truth, goodness, and equity.

The Sanskrit inscription "यतो धर्मस्ततो जयः" (Yato Dharmastato Jayaḥ) on the seal translates to "Where there is justice (dharma), there is victory."

• The Court is headed by the Chief Justice of India (CJI) and consists of a maximum of 34 judges.
• The motto "Supreme Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitaha" (Dharma protects those who uphold it) has also been adopted as the motto of the National Law School in Bengaluru.
• Under Article 142 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court has inherent powers to pass orders necessary for ensuring justice, and the President of India is tasked with enforcing its decrees.

The Supreme Court stands as the guardian of the Constitution and the ultimate authority in upholding justice in India.
