(Formerly Mr. Jeevan Kumar Malla)
Advocate at the Supreme Court of India

Jeevan Singh was born in 1972 into the family of a humble Dalit couple in the remote hamlet of Kadodipannai, Tuticorin District of Tamil Nadu. His grandfather was a landless agricultural laborer and his father was the first person to be educated in the thousands-year-old oppressed system that considered them as outcasts and unworthy of education.
