In this unforgettable episode of The Legacy Series, we are deeply honoured to host Justice Mukul Mudgal, one of India’s most influential legal minds and reformers. A former Chief Justice of the Punjab and Haryana High Court and retired judge of the Delhi High Court, Justice Mudgal’s contribution to Indian law spans far beyond the courtroom.

From shaping India’s prison reform jurisprudence to redefining sports law and governance globally, Justice Mudgal’s career is a remarkable testament to courage, conscience, and the quiet conviction to do what’s right.

In this wide-ranging, thoughtful conversation, he reflects on:

• His landmark role in cases like Sunil Batra and Prem Shankar Shukla that changed how India treats its undertrials and convicts
• The creation of the "rarest of the rare" doctrine in death penalty law through Bachan Singh
• His fierce commitment to legal aid, pro bono work, and access to justice for the poorest
• Declaring BCCI a public body, and his investigation of the 2013 IPL scandal
• Chairing FIFA’s Governance Committee, and lessons from global sports administration
• His bold take on arbitration reform, junior lawyers’ rights, and why judges must be humane
• The role of fine arts in shaping empathy and judicial sensibility
• His honest views on the life of a judge beyond the gavel: isolation, discipline, and public service

Justice Mudgal doesn’t just talk about the law - he embodies its purpose: to protect the vulnerable and uphold dignity. This episode is a masterclass in public service, legal ethics, and moral clarity, offering an extraordinary lens into Indian legal history.

Watch till the end for his life lessons, favourite books, productivity habits, and what he believes should be every lawyer’s true legacy. Did you know?

Justice Mudgal also brings his unique sense of empathy and social responsibility beyond the courtroom. He supported the Texas Hold ’Em Online Championship on 15th September 2019, with all profits donated to Romil Seva Sanstha, a charitable organisation he personally selected.

It’s one more example of how his commitment to justice extends well beyond the legal system and into everyday acts of giving.
