He was at the forefront of the student’s movement in the 1970s. Subsequently he completed his legal education and was a senior advocate. He was known as a partisan lawyer of the working class, non-sectarian in taking up the cause of the working class. He continued his political journey from the student’s movement by joining CPI(ML) Red Star.
He believed in the unity of all streams of the communists in India. He had a comradely friendship with a wide spectrum of communists, trade unionists and professionals. After the fascist Modi regime unfolded, he wished for and tried to work for unity of the left and democratic forces without dogma.
A special mention must be made here about the judicial intervention on behalf of the contract workmen in Air India and Mumbai municipal corporation’s waste management workers. We are in grief with Com. Jane, his partner in life. We pay our last respects and revolutionary red salute to a comrade of the working class.
