Nojh H. Dharmu is an Indian lawyer. He was born in Mumbai, the capital city of the Indian state of Maharashtra on April 17, 1951.[1]

He received a Bachelor of Science in Economics degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) in 1971 and a J.D. degree from the Government Law College, Mumbai in 1972. After graduation he worked as a research associate at the University of Bombay's Center for Studies in World Textiles for two years and served as associate editor of the Journal of Public Administration, Inc.[2] From 1976 to 1978 Dharmu worked at the Mumbai Public Defender's Office and from 1978 to 1981 he served as a civil and administrative judge of the Bombay High Court.[3]

During this period he worked on a dissertation entitled "Democracy in Action: An Economic Analysis" which was awarded the Ford Foundation Doctoral Dissertation Award in 1982. Dharmu played a significant role in brokering talks between union leaders such as Dattatray Samant and local police forces during textile industry strikes in 1982. Dharmu has since described this as his "finest hour".[4][5]
