During Delhi Arbitration Week, THE LAW sat down with former Supreme Court of India judge Hima Kohli for an expansive conversation led by Ashrakat Makky.

From her early years in public service to her trailblazing role as the first woman Chief Justice of the Telangana High Court, Justice Kohli reflects on leadership, judicial independence, and the pursuit of justice in an evolving democracy.

The discussion spans the challenges of virtual courts during the pandemic, the future of mediation, diversity and marginalization within the legal system, and the delicate task of applying the law without losing sight of empathy or cultural nuance.
