Explanation:

After its inauguration on January 28, 1950, the Supreme Court commenced its sittings in a part of the Parliament House. The Court moved into the present building in 1958.

The Constitution seeks to ensure the independence of Supreme Court Judges in various ways:

A Judge of the Supreme Court cannot be removed from office except by an order of the President passed after an address in each House of Parliament supported by a majority of the total membership of that House and by a majority of not less than two-thirds of members present and voting, and presented to the President in the same Session for such removal on the ground of proved misbehaviour or incapacity.
A person who has been a Judge of the Supreme Court is debarred from practising in any court of law or before any other authority in India.
