The rapid advancement of technology, as well as the power of social media to bring the globe closer together, have transcended professional specialties and preconceptions.
Justice Rohinton F Nariman set a Precedent for embracing quick innovation by being the first retired Supreme Court Justice to launch an official YouTube account.
The ‘Justice Nariman Official Channel’ went live on April 16 and has 48 full-length videos of his lectures on Law, history, religion, music, and spirituality, among other themes. The majority of these talks were given when he was a Supreme Court Justice.
According to sources aware of the situation, developing a YouTube channel was justice Nariman’s idea, which he cultivated with a legal buddy and worked on for over a month before launching it on Saturday last week. The Channel has about 1.37k followers as of Monday evening.
Justice Nariman, who was ordained as a Parsi priest at the age of 12, resigned the Supreme Court in August 2021, after a seven-year career filled with events.
There are several firsts associated with Justice Nariman. His career as a Lawyer and a Judge has been excellent from the start.
The then-Chief Justice of India had to make certain that he wore the twin coat and gown. In 1993, then-Chief Justice of India MN Venkatachaliah changed the rules to make him a Senior Advocate at the age of 37, rather than the requisite 45.
In July 2014, he was appointed to the Supreme Court as a Judge, making him only the sixth Lawyer in Judicial history to be immediately appointed from the Bar.
Justice Fali S Nariman is the son of prominent Jurist Fali S Nariman. Nariman is a well-known Zoroastrian and comparative religion expert. He has given religious and spiritual talks all around the world.
After studying the Gathas, he wrote “The Inner Fire: Faith, Choice, and Modern Day Living in Zoroastrianism,” a complete interpretation of the texts.
