[5/11, 11:12] T Arockia Dass, MHAA: Just 2 months back, I accompanied by my senior to meet Shri SVJ to get opinion in a second appeal, since issue was somewhat complicated and it can be decided in either way. On handing over the bundle and on seeing few documents, immediately SVJ expressed some opinion about issue and asked us to come to his office next day at Mylapore for further discussion. Though the next day was Sunday, he was busy in his office as usual and was referring Mulla’s Hindu Law. Moreover Mulla’s view and SVJ view was one and the same with regard to a particular issue. Accordingly, he advised us to make submission on that point. It took 45 minutes. After 45 minutes discussion, my senior tried to give fees for two days consultation. But SVJ politely refused to receive fees saying I took this opportunity to refresh my memories. Despite of repeated requests he strongly refused to receive consultation fee. This is the character of Shri SVJ. A real gentleman.. It is very rare to see a person like him. SVJ demise is big loss to a booming lawyers like me. T. Arockia Dass [5/11, 11:14] Sekarreporter: 🌹
