Comments on: Above All, India Needs Rule of Law /politics/above-all-india-needs-rule-of-law-55014/ Fact-based, well-reasoned perspectives from around the world Thu, 18 May 2023 05:34:25 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Smita /politics/above-all-india-needs-rule-of-law-55014/#comment-23963 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 17:15:33 +0000 http://www.fairobserver.com/?p=43395#comment-23963 It seems a bit skewed as when you speak about the Rule of Law, you are forgetting the first essential- equal application of the Laws. It is desirable that the conditions of the Constabulary need to be majorly improved on the other hand the article has been suspiciously silent about police corruption. It is not hidden that majority of Indian youth aspire for civil services and though we consider the Police as Corrupt blaming it for all of Society’s ills, yet they join it for the very same “perks” and undue advantage. This is something that needs to be addressed from within the system. How is it that the kids of majority of top cops study abroad and find good placement in MNC’s and till date we never hear of I.T raids though they have numerous properties and assets scattered in and around the Country. It is time people like Kiran Bedi who never minces words address the real issues behind the decadence of this institution of Law enforcers. Then and then only would it come to the bar as a Fair observer report. Also in one para the writers have stated that the Courts lack basic knowledge of Law, that did make me laugh since in reality it is the total obverse. The I.O a relic of the British period does his investigation sitting in his room, filling the case diary as per his sweet will and that is something that even the apex Court cannot intervene in.
For India Rule of Law is necessary but before that we need to rise above the innate mentality of you scratch my back and I scratch…..
