Justice Shekhar Kumar Yadav (16 April 1964) is an Indian judge who is serving currently in the Allahabad High Court since 12 December 2019.[1]

Contentious comments

Yadav is known to opine things that are a departure from the standard norms of the Judiciary of India such as—

Scientists believe cow is the only animal that inhales and exhales oxygen. This [cow's milk] gives special energy to sunrays, which ultimately causes rain. Panchgavya which is made of cow milk, curd, ghee, urine and cow dung helps in treatment of several incurable diseases.[2]

Parliament must bring law to pay ‘rashtriya samman’ (national honour) to Lord Ram, Lord Krishna, Ramayan and its author Valmiki besides Gita and its author Maharishi Ved Vyas, as they are the culture and heritage of the country[3]

Cow is the culture of India and the work of saving the culture is of every citizen living in the country irrespective of religion. Fundamental right is not only the prerogative of beef eaters, rather, those who worship the cow and are financially dependent on cows, also have the right to lead a meaningful life. India will prosper only if cows are revered.[4]
