Indian Express article in 2019 states, “ Indian Vice President venkaiah naidu has suggested that the Supreme Court institute four regional benches. The idea is not new. Apart from the Law Commission, Congress manifesto for this year too had this idea. But the idea has not developed into a serious debate, and the Supreme Court itself has been opposed to these ideas”.
Conclusion
It is obvious that the claim of expanding Supreme Court branches in Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai is fake. No such information has been found in Indian government official statements. Rather we could find the news of denying the claim.
