Detailed Solution

The President can appoint Supreme Court and High Court judges on the advice of the Prime Minister and in discussion with the Chief Justice of India.
The recruitment of Supreme Court and High Court judges is covered in Article 124 of the Indian Constitution. Such authority is frequently in the hands of the executive. A collegium suggestion is used to appoint Supreme Court judges. If the collegium approves the deserved judges of the court, the Union government forwards the names to the President of India for consideration.
