CJI Chandrachud Encourages Junior Advocate, Senior Lawyer Shares Touching Anecdote Of Senior Chandra

In a heartwarming act of mentorship, Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud gave a junior advocate the opportunity to address the court while waiting for Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, who was coming from another courtroom. As the young lawyer began her arguments, CJI Chandrachud encouraged the Solicitor General to let his junior continue presenting the case.

 

This thoughtful gesture inspired Senior Advocate Raju Ramachandran to share a touching story from his own early career. He recalled an incident from 48 years ago when, as a young lawyer with only two months of experience, he appeared before Justice YV Chandrachud, the current Chief Justice's father. The elder Chandrachud had called him by name, boosting the confidence of the novice lawyer.

 

Chief Justice Chandrachud graciously thanked Ramachandran for sharing this memory, emphasizing the profound and lasting impact such moments of encouragement can have on a lawyer's career.

 

This exchange not only highlighted the Supreme Court's commitment to nurturing young talent but also underscored the continuity of judicial legacy and mentorship across generations.
