1) explain about unpopular and controversial laws .

$\large{\bold{\underline{Answer - \: }}}$

• Sometimes a law can be constitutionally valid but continue to be unacceptable to people.

• People might criticise the law, hold public meetings, write in newspaper.

• In a democracy citizens can express their unwillingness to accept repressive laws framed by the parliament.

• When large number of people feel that a wrong law has been passed, there is pressure on parliament to change it.

For example - municipal laws make hawking and street vending illegal to keep the public space open but it is denying their livelihood.
