The Supreme Court on Friday opened its doors to the Health and Wellness Centre for the staff in the presence of Chief Justice of India (CJI) Dr. D.Y. Chandrachud.
According to a press release issued by the Apex Court today, the initiative was the brainchild of the 50th CJI, who wanted to promote the health of the staff in the new year.
As a special gesture, CJI Chandrachud invited a senior staff member, who was due to retire this month, to cut the ribbon and open the wellness centre for the staff, situated at the Additional Building Complex of Supreme Court.
The Wellness Centre was part of the initial plan of the Additional building, but could not be executed so far.
The Centre has facilities for Yoga and Cardio, along with regular gym equipment that can be used by the staff of the Apex Court.
Speaking on the occasion, the CJI wished for the wellness of the staff and encouraged them to focus on their health and well-being.
