Dr. Jyoti, this means more than you know. Working with brilliant minds like yours reminds me why I got into law in the first place. Not for the courtroom wins or the publications, but for the chance to make the invisible visible—to give voice to issues that powerful people would rather keep quiet. POSH work isn't glamorous. It's uncomfortable conversations, institutional resistance, and fighting for changes that won't make headlines. But when someone of your caliber takes the time to acknowledge this work, it validates what we're all trying to build together. You mentioned our work on sexual harassment prevention. Here's what keeps me up at night: most organizations treat POSH as a compliance checkbox. But compliance without culture change is just expensive paperwork. Real change happens when legal frameworks meet human understanding—when companies stop asking "are we covered?" and start asking "are our people safe?" That's the conversation I want every boardroom in India to have. Your recommendation isn't just kind words—it's a signal to the legal community that this work matters. That social responsibility isn't separate from legal excellence; it's the whole point. The young lawyers you're mentoring are lucky to have you. And I'm grateful to call you a colleague. Let's keep pushing the profession forward. Together. With genuine respect, Ajay Dr. Jyotsna Pandit Dr. Akanchha singh DR.
