When I see the word a good law, the only law I can think of is about drinking and driving. I think it is quite useful for the country as drink and drive incidents are very frequent in almost all parts of the globe. I came to know about it when I was a child and was sitting next to my father. He was driving on a highway where the police was checking the cars which they find were susceptible. I asked my father out of curiosity what were they doing with the device which they used to measure the alcohol range. He informed me about the law and told me that it is a significant one in our country because we have a wide range of alcohol and addictive drinks going on right there. Such incidents have become a common sight in newspapers and this law proves to eradicate all of these. The dedication of police to hold the cars on almost every check post and check each and every passenger on the car is something that I feel truly reflects the dedication of police towards their duty. Though there are a lot of good laws in our country, the most significant one has to be this.

Follow up questions


What other laws do you think are important in your country?
Apart from the drinking and driving law, I believe laws related to public safety, such as traffic regulations and laws against domestic violence, are also crucial. They help maintain order and protect citizens from harm, ensuring a safer environment for everyone.

How do you think the law against drinking and driving can be improved?
I think the law could be improved by increasing awareness campaigns about the dangers of drinking and driving. Additionally, harsher penalties for offenders could deter people from making that choice. Implementing more checkpoints and using technology for better enforcement could also help.

Have you ever witnessed the effects of this law in your community?
Yes, I have seen the positive effects of this law in my community. There have been fewer accidents related to drinking and driving since its enforcement. People are more cautious, and there is a noticeable change in behavior, especially during festive seasons when alcohol consumption increases.

One of the good law in my country is RTE, it's an abbreviated form, a full form is Right to Education.

This law was introduced by our former Prime Minister, late Mr. Manmohan Singh and he has introduced it in the year 2002. With the help of this law, lots of students already got education, primary education as well as secondary education. This law is very important for my country and I felt ecstatic that such kind of things are getting practiced in my country.

Despite its benefits, the Right to Education faces challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, lack of trained teachers, and regional disparities. In some areas, schools are overcrowded, and resources are limited, which can hinder the quality of education provided to students.

So this particular law I really believe is great for everyone, for our country also is called right to freedom of speech. I got to know about this when I was studying in class 7. At that time there was my class teacher named Sir James. Sir James taught me civics which is about democracies, constitutions and laws of our country and I got to know about right to freedom of speech. I was very delighted when I heard about this, it's quite eccentric when I got to know all about the constitution and the laws. This particular right to freedom of speech affected every citizen, even democracy itself because if nobody had to point out to the democrats what they are doing and how it's affecting us, if nobody gets this right to speak then our democracy would not be called a democratic country. It would be total dictatorship and this affects everyone. This shapes our country and its future so I believe this is the best law in our country and I'll always stand on my belief.

Follow up questions


How does freedom of speech impact daily life in your country?
Freedom of speech allows citizens to express their opinions openly, which fosters a culture of dialogue and debate. It enables individuals to voice concerns about government actions, social issues, and injustices, leading to greater accountability and positive change in society.

Can you give an example of a situation where this law was important?
One significant example is during protests against government policies. Citizens used their right to freedom of speech to organize demonstrations and express their dissent. This not only raised awareness about the issues but also pressured the government to reconsider its decisions.

What challenges does freedom of speech face in your country?
Despite its importance, freedom of speech can face challenges such as censorship, misinformation, and social backlash. There are instances where individuals have faced legal consequences for expressing unpopular opinions, which raises concerns about the true extent of this right in practice.

Law. A law is nothing but rules given by the government and it should be followed by the citizens of the country. I don't think there is such a good law in my country but as I can remember now, a good law in my country regarding the dowry demands. In recent times we have seen a drop in dowry demands in the Indian country. But in earlier years we have seen because of the dowry cases, many girls have committed suicide and the justice was not given. But now it is a strict rule, a groom cannot demand money from a girl's family. Dowry cases were on the rise when it was in 1900s. But now in recent times, in 21st century, dowry cases have dropped so much that people don't even demand. They get scared by the police and the government. If you demand a dowry, a police will take an immediate action and a person is thrown into behind the bars with a fine and 5 year old punishment.

Follow up questions


What impact do you think this law has on society?
The law has significantly changed societal attitudes towards dowry. It has empowered women and reduced the stigma associated with dowry demands. Families are now more aware of the legal consequences, leading to a cultural shift where dowry is increasingly seen as unacceptable.

Are there any other laws in your country that you think are important?
Yes, there are several important laws, such as those protecting women's rights, child labor laws, and laws against domestic violence. Each of these laws plays a crucial role in safeguarding the rights and well-being of vulnerable populations in society.

How do you think laws can be improved in your country?
Laws can be improved by increasing public awareness and education about legal rights. Additionally, stricter enforcement and better support systems for victims can enhance the effectiveness of existing laws. Community involvement and feedback can also help shape more relevant legislation.

There are laws in every country to maintain peace and harmony, so also rules and regulations are important for the well-being and good working of the country. So, I would like to tell about one such law in my country that I think is very good for women. It is a Maternity Benefit Act law. I came to know about it while discussing with my cousins when one of our elder sister got pregnant and she got a pretty good maternity leave under this act. So, by this law, pregnant women get a complete long duration of maternity leave with paid salaries. I think it is a very good initiative towards country growth and also towards women development and women encouragement because it provides stability as well as financial help to women who struggle to deal with such problems during their maternity or pregnancy duration. Also it is a good step towards human equality, gender equality and many other things like on the other side when we say a man is pregnant, he does not have to leave his job or be focused on the baby but on the other side, the woman has to be focused on the baby as well as handle her financial situation. So this act is very helpful in cases where she is a single mom or she has to support her family as well as take care of the child and be healthy for the child. So this act helps in such situations and I think it is a very good initiative towards women empowerment.

There are many laws in our country which gives good benefits to all class of people from rich to poor. One of them is subsidies to farmer. Subsidies to farmer is a great law passed by the government. It provides discount on the machineries and crops, fertilizers, pesticides so that the farmer can get it at a cheaper rate and can use it in the land so that they can increase the production of crops and greens. It is good because farmers are able to use expensive fertilizers and pesticides at a cheaper rate so that there is no harmful chemical being used which will benefit all the human beings which are eating food grains without any pesticides and fertilizers.

I would have to say a good law in my country is not allowing the consumption, buying or selling or import of alcohol is one of the very good laws. I found out about it through the internet and also by living here, because over here in any shops you aren't able to get alcohol, even in the shops, restaurants, even at home you're not allowed to consume alcohol. I would say the law is very good, it keeps people away from drugs, so that they won't want to come in contact with it, so it won't affect their life and they also won't get addicted. It will probably help their personal growth and keeping them away and keep them physically stronger and also protect them from a ton of diseases that can occur due to consumption of alcohol. So I would say it's a really good law in the country. That's what I would say.

Laws always ensures to reduce the conflict between people living in the society. Law is very necessary in a country called India where people from different communities live together. In my viewpoint, as we know that there are many children who are illiterate in our country, especially in the states of Bihar and Mumbai. So, as a part, in 2010 the government have introduced a law called Right to Education Act. It means the students of age 6 to 14 have the right to get free education and they are not supposed to do any kind of work at that time. This law ensures the importance of education in the lives of people. It came into being in the year of 2010 and at that time I have the habit of reading newspaper on everyday morning. So, I came to know about the significance of this law. It affects children so that they will be able to recognize what is right and wrong from childhood onwards. It is very good for the upliftment of our society. As we know that there are many people who are illiterate and they face many challenges for their living. So, if children get adequate education in their childhood, they will definitely learn afterwards because they know that the education is very important.
