3rd January 2025
Tick-tick, the clock struck 10:45 AM, and I found myself rushing through the corridors of the Supreme Court of India, flanked by my mentors and the ever-commanding presence of Advocate Rohit Pandey Ji. He walked with a heroic aura, his strides radiating confidence and authority that seemed to part the sea of people in the court.
But, as life often does, it threw in a delightful twist. On the bustling path, I stumbled upon Advocate Pawan Reley Ji, stepping out of his sleek, charismatic Lexus—a car that, much like the man himself, oozed inspiration. His journey had always been one I admired, and seeing him in person reignited that spark.
Me:- “Hello, Sir. Good morning!”
(I greeted him, trying to catch my breath.)
He:- responded with a firm handshake, his phone glued to his ear. “Hey!” he said with a smile, briefly breaking his conversation.
Me:- Sir, I’ll catch up later. I’m in a rush to reach the court.
He:- Yes, yes, go ahead!” he replied graciously, his voice carrying the weight of understanding.
Back on track, I sprinted into the Supreme Court lobby, a space teeming with the essence of legal brilliance. And then, like a dream, I saw them—the legends whose names resound across India’s legal landscape.
There was the G.O.A.T., Advocate Kapil Sibal, exuding quiet brilliance; Advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, the epitome of eloquence; Advocate Dushyant Dave, with his unyielding fire; Advocate Prashant Bhushan, the voice of conscience; and the Solicitor General of India, Advocate Tushar Mehta, walking with a calm demeanor, his presence alone commanding reverence.
Unlike the rest of us, they moved with no rush. Their every step seemed to echo the weight of their achievements and the gravity of their influence. Observing them felt like standing in the presence of titans—an unshakable reminder of why I chose this path.
As I hurried towards the courtroom, my heart raced, not just from the run but from the sheer inspiration that filled the air. Today was not just another day at the Supreme Court; it was a day where giants walked beside us, reminding me of the endless heights I could aspire to reach.
