Dr. Prosenjit Pal, the great-grandson of Justice Pal, joined the discussions, along with other dignitaries, including Consul General Nakagawa Koichi of Japan.
The event featured engaging keynote speeches, panel discussions, and academic exchanges that explored themes such as justice, decolonisation, and the evolution of international law.
