The knowledge he had gained here had immensely benefited in his career.

Mr. Krishnan said he was exposed to the nuances of legal system in judiciary through intelligent arguments put forth by the senior lawyers of yesteryears, who practised in the courts here.

The Additional District Judge, V. Ramamoorthy, other judicial officials, the president of the Tiruchi Bar, Pushparaj, were among those who spoke.
