Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu on Monday honoured senior advocate Fali Sam Nariman with Lal Bahadur Shastri National Award for Excellence in Public Administration and said Nariman was one of the best eminent jurists in India.

"We are all seeing the turbulence in the legal fraternity including the judiciary. We have seen what happened in the recent days. Keeping all these in mind I call upon the young law practitioners to stand for justice," Naidu said after felicitating Nariman at his official residence.
