On 1 May 1960, the old bilingual Bombay State split cleanly into two: Maharashtra kept the existing Bombay High Court, and Gujarat got a brand-new one at Ahmedabad, opening on the exact same day the state itself came into being. It's a pattern you'll see again and again in this list — a High Court's birthday is very often a state's birthday too.
