Justice Najmi Waziri is a distinguished legal scholar celebrated for his significant contributions and strong commitment to environmental conservation. His academic journey, marked by a philosophy degree from St. Stephen’s College and an LLB from Delhi University’s Campus Law Centre, led him to be recognized as a member of the Bar Council of Delhi in 1987. Further enriching his legal prowess, he pursued an LLM from Vrije Universiteit Brussels in Belgium. Justice Waziri’s career trajectory encompasses practice before esteemed legal entities, including the Supreme Court, various High Courts, and a range of tribunals. His advocacy for environmental preservation earned him the moniker “green judge” due to his compassionate verdicts and efforts to protect the city’s trees and surroundings. Two unique parks in the Indian capital of Delhi, themed on atonement and justice, called “Maafi Bagh” and “Insaaf Bagh” were created as a result of court orders that directed errant residents to plant trees as a sign of penance.
