Justice K.S. Radhakrishnan
Justice K.S. Radhakrishnan is former Supreme Court Justice, India, and is celebrated for heading the bench that passed the landmark judgement clarifying that bulls must not be used in jallikattu, bull races, bullfights or any other type of performance and that called for animals to be respected in many other ways. The groundbreaking SC judgement passed also referenced the concept of “speciesism”—discrimination against others simply for being another species—and compared it to other recognized wrongs: racism, castism and sexism.
