Story
Justice Indu Malhotra is a Supreme Court judge in India and has been vocal about the underrepresentation of women in the Indian judicial and legal system. In a recent interview, Justice Malhotra discussed the importance of increasing the number of women in the legal profession, as well as the challenges that women face in breaking into and advancing within the field.
​
According to Justice Malhotra, one of the main reasons for the low representation of women in the legal profession is the lack of support and opportunities for women to enter the field. She emphasized the need for more education and training programs for women interested in pursuing a career in law, as well as policies that encourage law firms to hire and promote more women lawyers.
​
In addition, Justice Malhotra pointed out that women who do enter the legal profession often face discrimination and bias, which can make it difficult for them to advance in their careers. She called for the implementation of policies that promote gender diversity and support the advancement of women in the field, such as flexible work arrangements and family-friendly policies.
