Justice Cornered: We Were Judges NOT J.O.s

ForewordThe journey of justice is often envisioned as a straight path, guided by the principles of law, integrity, and fairness.But for those who stand in its corridors, striving to uphold its sanctity, the reality is far from simple.Justice Cornered is not just a book-it is a testimony, an unflinching narrative of the struggle, resilience, and an unyielding commitment to truth.In these pages, the Author recounts the defining moments of her life as a legal professional, beginning as a young idealistic lawyer, navigating through the labyrinth of power structure, systemic challenges, and institutional biases.From the moment the Author took her first hesitant steps into the world of law, to the trials of facing hostility and isolation, this book captures a lived experience that many would shy away from documenting.Every chapter is a reflection of the strength it takes to stand alone, to question, and to persist when the odds are insurmountable.The Author has penned these experiences not only as a personal memoir but as a voice for those who have been silenced, marginalized, or deterred from seeking justice in its truest form. It is an honest account of what it means to serve the law-not as a mere profession, but as a calling.Justice Cornered is a chronicle of her journey through the corridors of law and the power struggles within the system.This book is not just a personal narrative; it is a reflection of the resilience required to uphold judicial ethics in a profession where standing alone can mean standing against many.Siddharth MridulSenior AdvocateFormer Chief Justice of Manipur High CourtFormer Judge, High Court of Delhi
