Public Awareness of Law

Parthasarathi Loganathan (Querist) 15 March 2010 This query is : Resolved
Public Awareness of law is a big question mark in the society. Basic provisions of statutes in all branches of law can be put in a nut shell and publicized widely in the media as the Fourth Estate is the only tool to educate the masses. This idea was also amply depicted in a Tamil Movie titled "Tamizhan" where the hero (who is an advocate) pioneers hard to educate the masses about Fundamental laws governing the society and the results were amazing. Kapil Sibal who himself is an eminent jurist can made progressive educational reforms to even introduce law as compulsory subjects at the school level which will carve a big way in many reforms in the society. If the State expects each and every citizen to be law abiding, then latter should be educated or informed about basic statutes that govern our day to day life. Students read Biology in their schooling but all do not become doctors, students who are proficient in Mathematics but all do n't become Engineers, .... On the other hand LAW IS COMMON TO ALL. For which every citizen should be well versed with the fundamentals of Law. That is my prayer. Experts can also initiate other ideas to spread this message in a big way.
