Justice Hima Kohli: A Torchbearer For Women's Dignity

In 2022, Justice Hima Kohli was part of the Supreme Court’s landmark verdict that banned the two-finger test on victims of sexual assault. Prohibiting this regressive practice was long overdue and if one considers Justice Kohli’s contribution to women's issues and family law jurisprudence, it was rather fitting that the astute judge co-authored the Judgement alongside CJI D.Y. Chandrachud. Over the course of her illustrious career, her ladyship has made a name for herself in cases involving the human angle.
