Justice Pralhad Balacharya Gajendragadkar was the 7th Chief Justice of India. Gajendragadkar J’s rich judicial history reveals him to be a staunch defender of labour rights, ‘the Court’s greatest assenter’ in its 75-year post-independence history, and the Indira Gandhi-appointed Chairman of the Sixth Law Commission of India that operated during the Emergency.
