Public Advocacy and Legal Commentary for Social Justice
I believe the law does not stop at the courtroom door. My advocacy work aims to influence policy and educate the public on their rights, because change happens both inside and outside the system.
In this video, I explain a Supreme Court observation about the reliability of information obtained under the Right to Information (RTI) Act. It is important for people to understand the nuances of the law and how it applies in court.

About Commentary & Public Advocacy
I do not just fight cases for individuals, I speak up about the systemic issues that make those cases necessary. Whether I am commenting on the reliability of Right to Information filings or engaging with the legal fraternity to drive reform, my goal remains the same, to ensure the legal system actually serves the common person, not just those with power.
Beyond the Courtroom
My work as a lawyer has always been tied to a broader struggle. In these videos and updates, you will see me addressing issues that affect the fabric of our society. This includes my recent public commentary on the limitations of RTI responses, where I have supported Supreme Court observations on their reliability. It is crucial for citizens and fellow lawyers to understand that information obtained under RTI is not always absolute truth, and relying on it blindly in court can be a mistake.
Fighting for Systemic Change
I believe in taking the fight to where policy is made. My involvement in Delhi High Court Bar Association activities and my past election campaigns are not merely about positions. They are about building a collective voice. To bring fundamental change for the working class, it is necessary to fight from within the system.
My Commitment to Advocacy
Whether I am standing with fellow activists or discussing the future of our legal profession, my focus is always on the 'shoshan' (exploitation) of the vulnerable. If you are looking for a legal representative who understands that the law is a tool for social justice, you have come to the right place.
Why Public Advocacy Matters
- Legal Education: I break down complex laws so you understand your 'adhikar' (rights).
- Policy Reform: I actively engage in debates and movements that challenge unfair practices.
- Mentorship: I am committed to training the next generation of lawyers to be as much activists as they are practitioners.
