India's Supreme Court renames summer vacations to "partial court working days" amid criticism.

The Supreme Court of India has renamed its summer vacations as "partial court working days" to address criticism over lengthy breaks. This change, part of an amendment to the Supreme Court Rules, was notified on November 5, 2024. The Chief Justice will determine the duration, not exceeding 95 days, excluding Sundays. Judges will still handle urgent cases during this period. The updated calendar for 2025 reflects these changes, starting May 26 and ending July 14.
