Legal and corporate affairs magazine ‘Witness’ set for launch

‘Witness’, touted as India’s first magazine on Legal and Corporate affairs, is set to hit newsstands. The magazine, published by Srigro Interactive Pvt Ltd, will cater to professionals, legal luminaries, captains of the industry and legal practitioners.

‘Witness’ is light and informative in terms of its content and would hit the legal domain in a lighter way. It deals with the thoughts, views and concerns of the legal fraternity and offers an honest platform to share and express viewpoints. It would also give legal practitioners’ views on current burning issues.

Country’s top notch practitioners and experts are being invited to contribute in ‘Witness’. The magazine’s international section would prompt the global legal community to sit back and absorb the developments taking place in our legal process. The magazine would also be circulated in the UK and the US.

Shyam Grover, a 17-year veteran in areas of management consultancy and corporate matters, has been roped in as Group Editor & CEO. PBA Srinivasan is Editor-in-Chief. Srinivasan, an advocate, has been practicing in Supreme Court and High Courts in India and various tribunals for over 20 years.

The international editorial panel for the magazine comprises Dr Nanda PBA Kumar, Lokanath Mohapatra, Dr Rajiv Mehta and KS Sreekumar. The Advisory Board comprises Justice RS Sodhi, retired High Court Justice; Krishna Kalra, Secretary-General, PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry; and senior advocate Harish Malhotra.

The inaugural issue throws light on the role of mediation cells and their growing importance in today’s scenario. It discusses how mediation has been extremely successful in the West and how best we can adopt this in India.
