Answer

It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

Speaking about a new law, I would like to introduce a law for Environmental Safety Protection Act, which will act as a safeguarding principle, which will act as a safeguard for the people who violate, which acts as a safeguard for the environment, and it will be that it should, I believe that it should provide harsh punishment to people who violate the environment, violate the law and cause damage to the environment. I feel it is very much necessary for India to implement such kind of law, since India is an energy intensive country, and we have seen that few days back we came across news that, that is eco-wire has risen up, has risen up drastically. So it is important that we take necessary measures to curb these environmental damages, with the growing global warming and climate change, with the consequences, drastic consequences of climate change, it is very much necessary that we take, implement such kind of laws to safeguard the environment and to minimize the damage we are causing to the surrounding earth. I feel that it will become quite popular as people are becoming more and more aware about climate change and the pollution, how it is causing harm to the people and their health, their health and the environment.

The new law, which I think would be better if implemented, is that when people move to different states or different cities, they should learn the local language. Because right now, it's not a rule that they have to know the language, but if it was a rule that everyone who comes from outside to the new cities, they should learn how to at least speak and read the sentences in the local language. By doing so, it would help the native citizens speaking with the newcomers. They would not be pressurized in learning the different languages or communicating with the new people who come here. By doing so in a city like Bangalore, it would help a lot because with the growing technology and job opportunities, people from all over the country come here. So if they keep on ignoring the language and just living here for 10-12 years or over 20 years and not knowing the language would make the decrease or what I say the gradual diminishing of the language because the population of the people, of the outside people increases, then their language, their implementations come into the place where there used to be a different language. Like for example, now the Kannada language is the people who speak...

The new law I would like to introduce in my country is having a gender equality. Even the government has issued this new law to have a gender equality. But as in my country, we lack the basic concepts, the basic support system which is needed to follow this in the country. Even male and female, after the country has developed at such a particular time, there is no gender equality. Even one of the genders, for example, females have been always in their household works, in their house, being seen down. And men who dominate in the house, in the workplace. This is what I feel that may interrupt a gender equality law which has already been mentioned and which has been a law in the country. And I feel this law may help females who have been backward, who have not been sent to school, who have not been treated, who have not been given employment. This may help them to bring up themselves and create a new world for themselves, a new place, a safe place. So that they can bring out themselves and stand still and strong for whichever reason that may be. Thank you.

Band 6-7

There are many laws that are published in my country and there are many more laws that are introduced by the government. Today I would like to talk about a law that I would like to introduce in my country that is taking action against who throw garbage on the roads. This will lead to various problems like sometimes bikes or scooters slip from the road whenever they apply brake. This was also not good for nature. The city or village do not look good and put bad impression on the tourists that visit. It is not a good thing for people as it looks like sometimes it also fluctuates in the NALAS.

India is the democratic country and we have elections every year. If I am capable to change or implement new law, I want to do something for farmers. For farmers, I want to bring with the law of MSP so that the farmer can sell their crops at good price and get profit from that because farmer is the most hardworking business in the entire country or worldwide. But nowadays farmers are not getting the good price of their crops. So I want to help them and do something for them. This law came up in my mind from the recently happened farmer protest in India. But the Indian government didn't allow them to sell their crops on MSP. But I think this law should be implemented for the farmers. Also introduce farmers from the new crops and new opportunities so they can grow variety of crops and sell them outside of India in foreign market and get good money from them. So I want to introduce this law in India. Thank you.

Band 6

Speaking about any new laws that I would like to introduce in my country, would be on road traffic regulations. Myself, personally living in Chennai, a busy city in the southernmost part of India, has seen a lot of traffic violators on a daily basis. Stringent measures are needed, you know, to prevent repeat offenders, as in to increase the fine amount for not wearing a protective gear like helmet. Most importantly, the most common rule that is not even followed in India is the lane discipline. It doesn't matter if an individual is driving a two-wheeler or a four-wheeler, lane discipline is one of the things that is to be most respected when it comes to road rules and regulations. A statistical study says that without proper lane rules is the actual reason for most accidents in India to occur. By increasing the fine amount and several other stringent measures, I personally think these law offenders could be punished in such a way that they will not be repeat offenders again.

Band 6

The new law I would like to introduce in my country is going to be a death penalty for all the rapists. The reason behind introducing this law is because the number of rape cases happening in my country are too much as compared to different nations around the world. This law will definitely have a change and a great impact on all the society. Hopefully the law will be able to sustain and every girl gets her justice. The death penalty will be served directly if the rapist is found guilty as per the law.

Well, our country has diversified laws in every aspect right from the beginning of independence which enacts all our cultures and differences into one single framework. One law I would specifically like to introduce which is Right to Information Act. This act was brought up several times but due to some disparities and flaws it was always debunked by the politicians. The reason I want these is to every person should get. Our country since independence has introduced lot of laws which change time to time with the new demands and loopholes being closed but one specific law I would really like to add to the country is Right to Information Act. This act empowers the common man to ask the questions and gain access to the information which is hidden in the government file. Now with this act the most beneficial person will be a common man who has all the access to the work being done by the government and find the accountability and responsibility of what is not being covered at all. Government should be held accountable for the deeds and the results which they produce to the person. Sometimes we don't get these informations about the corruptions being done, the expenses being withhold or even the things which are being overpaid by the government employees. With this law I feel accountability will be given and responsibility to answer by the politicians is provided. I feel this law should be known to every person who has anything to do with the government system. People feel they should be knowing what has been done and what should be done to improve the things and to point out the corrupt in the system. Thank you.

Band 6

I want to implement a women's safety law in my country in which an app or a number is preserved for women. If a woman in an area is feeling uncomfortable or feeling like someone is harming her, then he will call this number and immediate action will take. The force of women and men, police force is sent to the woman. I feel very good when this law is implemented and the women also feel good about the safety of them.

Band 6

Yes, the new law that I would like to introduce in my nation is, the people who are having a two wheeler or a four wheeler should have a place for parking. If they don't have any parking slot or a place to park their vehicles, then they should not buy a two wheeler or a four wheeler, they have to use a public transport. Because due to a congestion on a road, there's a lot of damages and accidents are happening nowadays. For example, if there is a lot of four wheelers or two wheeler parking on the side of the road and another neighbor wants to take out the car, they are literally suffering a lot whether it would be a damage or anything happens or a scratch like that. So it's always we should be aware that we have a place we can buy, if not, we can take a public transport. It also reduces the population of bicycles and air pollution in the environment. It also be very useful in the future and can be also introduced in other countries if the people really obey this law and will be really really very popular in future. So I like to introduce this law.
