New Delhi, March 24 The Central government on Thursday notified the appointment of two new judges to the Delhi High Court.

"In exercise of the power conferred by clause (1) of Article 217 of the Constitution of India, the President appoints (1) Poonam A. Bamba and (2) Swarana Kanta Sharma, as judges of the Delhi High Court, in that order of seniority with effect from the date they assume charge of their respective offices," read the notification issued by the Ministry of Law and Justice.
