Fali S. Nariman, Padma Vibhushan, EX- Attorney General of India spoke greatly of Ram. He said, “We can’t sum up the success of Ram Jethmalani, his unstoppable practice for a record-breaking 80 odd years, starting his career at only 17 years of age.” He said India has lost one of its finest advocates. Nariman pointed out members of the bar had the joyful satisfaction of knowing Ram and that he left after setting a benchmark in legal proficiency. “He said Ram possessed brains of high quality, he would have liked to be remembered as a person who made a difference in the lives of younger people. He said Ram always found time to interact with students amidst his roaring practice, innumerable preoccupations prove his commitment.”

He said Ram made a hard-hitting speech during the emergency and he was sought after by police. His first name guaranteed instant fame. It gave him repute and riches. Now that he is no more, Nariman has a message, “We will keep remembering him in September, and we’ll proclaim it as Ram Jethmalani day.”
