Fathima Beevi - A Lifestory

Someone stands out in Indian law history. She wasn't just a judge; she was a first of her kind. Think of a time when the top court in India had never had a woman judge. Then came someone, breaking walls and making a path for others to follow. Born in 1927, her life wasn't like a movie, but it was very inspiring. After getting her law degree, she started working in the court system. She moved up, showing everyone her skills and hard work. In 1989, history was made. Someone became the first woman judge of the top court in India. This was a big deal, like winning a big game for women in law! Coworkers liked her smart thinking and fairness. She was known for being able to solve hard cases and make good choices. Her time on the top court, until she stopped working in 1992, wasn't just about cases and law talks. It was about showing that women could do well in any job, even the hardest ones. She became someone to look up to, proving that with hard work, anything can happen. Even after stopping work, she kept helping the country, holding jobs like being on the National Human Rights Commission. She proved to be a leader and someone to follow.
