Some of the great luminaries have delivered in the hall. Chisholm was also the man behind the Faculty of Arts dome of MS University.Interestingly, Chisholm, who had adopted the exposed brick style for all the buildings that he had designed, used Italian ceramic tiles for the first time in Nyay Mandir. Spread over four acres, Nyay Mandir has trellis (zaali work) helping ventilation in it and also has elements of Mughal architecture.Along with the federal courts, the building also housed town hall which is the existing central hall where a statue of Maharani Chimnabai is placed..
