Rajeswari said that she hopes to use her new position to improve the judicial system by encouraging interpreters to have more access to aid immigrants. She has worked on cases involving women and children and said they are the ones that touched her the most. Rajeswari has served in the district attorney's office for the past 16 years and has been the deputy chief of the Special Victims Unit for more than four years. "I told the mayor this is not only my American Dream, but it shows another girl from a far away country that this is possible," Rajeswari had said. "For someone like me, an immigrant who comes from India, I'm beyond grateful," she said. It's way beyond what I imagined," she was quoted as saying in the media report. Rajeswari had said in a report earlier this month that she is "honoured and humbled" by her appointment. "And she saw as her mission to give them confidence in the justice process," de Blasio said. He lauded her ability to speak in Indian, middle eastern and southeast Asian languages, saying she put her history as an immigrant and ability to speak all these languages to work, "helping to reach immigrants" in the Staten Island communities where she served as an Assistant District Attorney. The mayor said Rajeswari has an "extraordinary, extraordinary empathy for others." From the first female South Asian-American judge in New York City to a former NYPD First Deputy Commissioner, these talented leaders truly reflect the diverse range of communities that make up our great city," he said. "With their wealth of legal experience, these appointees represent all five boroughs and all walks of life. "To ensure New Yorkers have access to a fair, equitable justice system, we need judges who are qualified, honest and reflective of the people of this city," said Mayor de Blasio. Mayor appoints judges to 10-year terms in the New York City Criminal Court and the Family Court within the city.
