'In Her Honour traces the inspiring journeys of the first women judges of India’s High Courts, a legacy that began in 1959 with Justice Anna Chandy. The book is not just a timeline of appointments and a compilation of their life stories, it is a record of trials and triumphs, of women who, despite the dignity of their office, often experienced deep social readjustment and silent struggles. Many of them joined the legal profession when women advocates were a rarity, and when even entering the Bar Room required courage. Their journeys to the bench were marked by determination and faith, each one balancing the heavy weight of personal expectations and professional excellence in a system that had little precedent for their presence.
