It traces Chief Justice Mahajan’s life as a lawyer, a Judge and a politician.

As a Judge, he was incisive and forthright making landmark decisions with warmth, wisdom and enduring humanity; few of his most famous judgments have been discussed in this book. The book also includes few of his papers and addresses on important issues concerning the country that affirm the fact that Dr Mahajan had the heart of a patriot. This book will certainly be a prized collection for any library.

Ceaseless and Relentless Journey

"... the story of a man dedicated to the cause of justice... ...He came up in life with steely determination..."

The "Ceaseless and Relentless Journey" of Ramaswamy's life as unfolded in the pages of this book is truer than truth itself. Those impossible situations in life of one who did not have the privilege of birth, of caste or of status in a society riddled with contradictions and social absurdities, Justice Ramaswamy surmounted. Challenges in his life were many - not the least being the considerable braving of social obstacles by relentless striving with determination and fortitude, where lesser men would have lost hope, given-up and resigned themselves to the inevitable fate of anonymity. His life holds a stirring message for posterity.
