For this week’s podcast episode, Ambika Hiranandani talks to us about being an environmental and animal rights lawyer and also activism for non-lawyers. Ambika is a legal and government affairs adviser to the Tata Trusts and Strategic Partnerships Head with the Good Food Institute. Ambika has been part of various PILs for animal rights, most significantly to ban Victorias or horse-drawn carriages in Mumbai. 

 In conversation with Ambika, we explore her passion for environmental and animal rights, implementation (or lack thereof) of animal rights laws, banning Victorias in Mumbai, climate change, and more!

Given the visible effects of climate change, tell us your thoughts on the status of environmental and animal rights laws in India, and subscribe to the Her Forum Podcast for more.
