In today’s world their is more need of women judges in the higher judiciary. It has became necessary that while nominating judges for Supreme court and high court their should be equal representation for both men and women in the judiciary. As we all know that higher judiciary has very less means 10% female judges and in lower judiciary their is 27% of female judges whereas Supreme court don’t even have 1% of female judges, as per the scenario their is very few women judges in the judiciary. In Supreme Court of india their is more and more need of women judges because their is only one female judge, as per the total strength which is 27 their should be atleast 20 or 25 females judges are needed in Supreme Court. Their are 1,113 judges in the Supreme Court and High court and in that their are only 80 female judges in the judiciary. In some places like Patna and Tripura they have high court but their is no female judges. The reason of very less women judges is lack of education problems their are females who want to be in the judiciary but they don’t get equal chance or equal opportunities to follow her goals. Many girls and women sacrifice their dreams for their child and many of them don’t get support from their family and also marriage is the major problem between their career goals. Their should be awareness about education in judiciary, so that women will may choose judiciary as their career option. Society need to encourage and support women to have judiciary as their career option and family should also give equal opportunities for both son and daughter in education. Media need to give more focus on importance of judiciary career for women. Due to which females will get to know about their is more need of women judges in the higher judiciary.
