Six judges of the Supreme Court are suffering from Swine Flu, Justice DY Chandrachud said on February 25.

Justice DY Chandrachud, while conducting the court proceedings, announced that all apex court judges held a meeting with Chief Justice of India SA Bobde over the case of six of their colleagues infected by H1N1 virus. An apex court judge, Sanjiv Khanna, was seen entering the court wearing a mask.

Justice Chandrachud also said that the apex court will make the vaccine available for inoculation of lawyers.

Reports suggest that the CJI held a meeting with Supreme Court Bar Association chief Dushyant Dave over H1N1 spread. Dave has proposed to release Rs 10 lakh to take required actions to contain the virus. According to Dave, the H1N1 virus vaccination will cost Rs 1,200.

As of now, around 37 people have been tested positive for the H1N1 virus in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh.
