Madras High Court praised a Madurai judge for courage after lawyers allegedly disrupted her courtroom. Justice L. Victoria Gowri quoted Margaret Thatcher: “If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman”.
For the first time in 163 years, the Calcutta High Court now has eight women judges. This milestone was achieved after the swearing-in of three additional judges. The increased representation marks a step toward gender balance in the judiciary. It also inspires more women to pursue legal careers despite challenges.
