Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia Bids Farewell to Supreme Court, Fondly Recalls “Hindustan” in Its Diversity

On his last working day before retirement on August 10, Justice Sudhanshu Dhulia reflected on the Supreme Court’s unique diversity, saying he would miss “Hindustan”- the court’s lawyers and litigants from every part of India.

Born in 1960, Justice Dhulia began at the Allahabad High Court, later served in Uttarakhand, was Chief Justice of the Gauhati High Court, and joined the apex court in May 2022.

Known for his patient, empathetic approach and love of literature and Urdu ghazals, colleagues praised his sharp legal mind and human touch.
