HT Correspondent

NEW DELHI: The 15th Justice VM Tarkunde Memorial Lecture was held in the Capital on Friday, commemorating the legacy of one of India's most respected jurists and civil rights activists.

Known as the "father of the civil liberties movement" in India, Justice Tarkunde was a former judge of the Bombay high court who resigned at the age of 60 in 1969 to dedicate himself to public service. A staunch advocate of human rights, he was instrumental in founding organisations such as the People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) and Citizens for Democracy during the Emergency and was recognised with the Padma Bhushan in 1998 for his contributions to society.
