Young lawyers must be inquisitive as detectives, tenacious as farmers and precise like surgeons, said Telangana High Court Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma on Wednesday.
Addressing the gathering at the Full Court meeting bidding farewell to him on his transfer to Delhi High Court, the CJ appealed to the senior members of the bar to guide the youngsters. Stating that he was also a senior advocate of Madhya Pradesh HC before becoming a judge, the CJ recalled that in his initial days of legal profession junior lawyers would secure guidance from senior advocates.
“Now things have changed. The law schools train the students so well that they can start arguing from day one as an advocate,” the CJ said. The CJ said that, however, he personally felt that junior lawyers should seek guidance from seniors as certain basic values are taught only by seniors.
