said it was catching up and there is a greater demand for specialists in this domain. As of now, the specialization has just 50 lawyers in top positions and about 200 practising but the demand is more.
“We need more women. I found few women in National Law Colleges when I studied. Now nearly 50 per cent of students in such colleges are women. The Indian judiciary needs more women. We see more women in legal firms but very few in courts. We need more women judges,” she said.
