Your hard work has paid off, and I'm really proud of your achievement. Wishing you all the best in your new role on the bench!" advocate SG Rabbani said in a post on X.
According to ummid.com, Mr Kasim joined Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) from where he completed his BA LLB. He later took admission in Delhi University (DU) and completed LLM.

Mr Kasim gave the credit for his success to his teachers at AMU.
"My mother is the motivational force behind me and never permitted me to drop out of the school," he said.
