From Data Protection To The Riot Commission, Every Challenge Has A Solution: Justice B.N. Srikrishna

On episode 2 of the Bombay Bar Association Podcast, Vice president of the Bombay Bar Association, Venkatesh Dhond is in conversation with the jack and master of so many varied subjects, (Retd.) Justice BN Srikrishna.

Perhaps best known for heading the Srikrishna Commission that inquired into the 1992-93 Bombay riots, Justice Srikrishna has led a long and fascinating legal career. Having put aside his ambitions of becoming a nuclear scientist, Srikrishna built a robust legal practice at the Bombay High Court that even saw him at the centre of a pivotal Bombay Mill Strike case.  Find out the reason he took up judgeship in the middle of a crisis at the Bombay High Court, how he taught himself computer code and why he had to spend some time on a submarine when he was heading the 6th Pay Commission.
