Bhaskar Bajwa

Profile description

An Indian citizen living abroad discovers that a criminal proceeding in India has led to a conviction and a travel ban, leaving the family stranded and assets at risk. Bhaskar Bajwa specializes in NRI Special Leave Petitions and appeals before the Supreme Court of India, offering a direct route to challenge adverse orders and restore freedom of movement.

Bhaskar Bajwa earned a doctorate in law with a focus on cross‑border criminal matters and spent six years as a legal adviser to Indian embassies handling NRI detainee issues. That experience gave the lawyer unique insight into how foreign jurisdictions and Indian courts interact, as well as the procedural nuances that affect NRI clients. After gaining Supreme Court bar credentials, the lawyer has devoted a decade to filing SLPs and appeals that protect the rights of Indians abroad.

The lawyer regularly assists NRI clients who face extradition orders, travel restrictions, or post‑conviction penalties that impede their ability to work and reside overseas. Bhaskar Bajwa can help by reviewing the foreign court’s decision, identifying any violation of international law or procedural irregularity, and drafting a concise SLP that urges the Supreme Court to grant special leave. The lawyer also prepares comprehensive appeal memoranda when the Supreme Court grants leave, ensuring that every legal argument is presented with precision.

The approach rests on three pillars: jurisdictional analysis, rights protection, and persuasive narrative. First, the lawyer examines whether the High Court order respects the constitutional guarantee of personal liberty for NRIs and whether it aligns with treaties India has signed. Second, Bhaskar Bajwa highlights how the order interferes with the client’s right to livelihood abroad, citing Supreme Court decisions that balance domestic law with international obligations. Third, the lawyer crafts a compelling narrative that blends factual clarity with legal authority, making it easy for the bench to see the need for immediate relief.

Clients appreciate the lawyer’s transparent updates and cultural sensitivity. Bhaskar Bajwa provides weekly progress reports, explains the implications of each filing, and prepares the client for any remote video hearing that the Supreme Court may schedule. The lawyer also coordinates with foreign counsel to ensure that evidence from abroad is admissible and accurately presented.

Over the past twelve years, the lawyer has successfully obtained Supreme Court relief for NRIs facing extradition, passport seizure, and post‑conviction asset attachment. In a landmark case, the lawyer secured an order that stayed the enforcement of a criminal sentence, allowing the client to travel abroad for medical treatment while the appeal proceeded. These victories demonstrate the lawyer’s ability to navigate complex transnational legal terrain and achieve favorable outcomes.

Engaging Bhaskar Bajwa means partnering with a lawyer who combines deep knowledge of Indian constitutional law with practical experience in international matters. The lawyer’s meticulous research, precise drafting, and confident advocacy increase the likelihood that the Supreme Court will grant special leave and overturn an unjust order affecting your life abroad. If an overseas-based conviction threatens your freedom, a specialized NRI SLP can open a path to relief that lower courts cannot provide.

After a favorable Supreme Court decision, the lawyer continues to guide the client through implementation, filing necessary compliance documents and defending any subsequent challenges that may arise. This end‑to‑end support ensures that the relief achieved becomes a lasting shield for your personal and professional interests worldwide.
