concurrence of the Chief Justice of India, by notification, make rules prescribing the other qualifications 

for appointment of a Judge referred to in clause (c) of sub-section (3) of section 4. 

(2) Every rule made under this Act by the Central Government shall be laid, as soon as may be after it 

is made, before each House of Parliament, while it is in session, for a total period of thirty days which 

may be comprised in one session or in two or more successive sessions, and if, before the expiry of the 

session immediately following the session or the successive sessions aforesaid, both Houses agree in 

making any modification in the rule or both Houses agree that the rule should not be made, the rule shall

any such modification or annulment shall be without prejudice to the validity of anything previously done 

under that rule.
