Description
Lives of great men are a source of inspiration. Chief Justice Mehr Chand Mahajan was one such man. This book gives a fair idea of what that great man was, what he thought and what he did. It traces Chief Justice Mahajan's life as a lawyer, a Judge and a politician. Keeping in view the contemporary relevance of, the Kashmir issue, readers will find the biography interesting as it discusses the prominent role played by Justice Mahajan in the accession of the State of Jammu and Kashmir to India. As a Judge, he was incisive and forthright making landmark decisions with warmth, wisdom and enduring humanity; few of his most famous judgments have been discussed in this book. The book also includes few of his papers and addresses important issues concerning the country that affirm the fact that Justice Mahajan had the heart of a patriot. This book will certainly be a prized collection for any library.
