Dr. Krishan Mahajan has been amicus curiae of the Supreme Court of India in the cases of the Taj Mahal, the tombs of Ghalib, Zauq and the mausoleum of Nizammudin Auliya. His doctoral work on the Protection of Monuments of National Importance, legal village field studies on land reforms, women home workers, bonded labour, leprosy patients, carcass flayers has given him an insight into the reality of public law culture. The operational court and judicial culture experience comes from his work as a senior Central Government counsel at the Supreme Court. The learning of the political economy of the law comes from his private practice on contracts, banking, corporate, criminal, environmental, intellectual property, taxation, revenue, land, labour and service laws across courts in India. His experience of the alternative culture of the law comes from his conciliation, negotiation and mediation works as a Supreme Court trained and certified mediator as also from his private practice in arbitration. The linkage of education, information and culture is derived from his experience as a consultant of the National Human Rights Commission and of several universities. This has been reflected in his writings as a Journalist For Europe in Paris, in the weekly legal columns in The Hindustan Times, in academic journals and papers of international conferences and as the pan-India Law editor of The Indian Express. The law and politics interaction was experienced by him in the drafting of Parliamentary Bills and notifications for several Union Government Ministries. The academic foundation for this was his law and economics training in Delhi University which was developed further as the Sterne Fellow of the Columbia Law School, U.S.A and a Fellow of the Japan Foundation. His teaching forte has been law and culture as the Dean of the National Law School, Odisha and as a Professor at the National Law School, Patiala. Presently, he is the Additional Registrar and Controlling Officer of the Supreme Court's Centre for Research & Planning and continues his learning of legal culture.
