Justice Bipin Bose

Do not confuse Justice Bipin Bose with Justice Vivian Bose. Justice Vivian Bose had an Indian father, an English mother and an American wife. His grandfather’s name was Sir Bipin Krishna Bose.

As Justice Vivian Bose famously remarked in Commissioner of Police v. Gordhandas Bhanji, AIR 1952 SC 16, orders are not like old wine becoming better as they grow older.

– Hon’ble Justice Dipankar Datta, Assistant General Manager, State Bank of India v. Tanya Energy Enterprises, [Civil Appeal No. 11134 of 2025] decided on 15.09.2025.

'The Last Word' seeks to include not only wise and witty sayings but also curiosities. These words are not of obligation but of delight. I am not alone in my refusal to believe, law is tedious. For all who escaped these percipient eyes, mea culpa maxima. History, after all, has many cunning passages, contrived corridors and issues.
