Why is the Supreme Court located in New Delhi?

Article 130 of the Constitution of India reads: “The Supreme Court shall sit in Delhi or in such other place or places, as the Chief Justice of India may, with the approval of the President, from time to time, appoint.” The law thus provides scope for setting up the Supreme Court in multiple places, subject to the concurrence of the Chief Justice of India and the President. Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu suggested bifurcation of the Supreme Court into four regional benches for speedy disposal of cases. However, the Supreme Court has maintained on previous occasions that there is no need for such benches outside Delhi.
