Do Laws Apply to All?

• Any crime or violation of law has a specific punishment as well as a process through which the guilt of the person has to be established.

Rule of Law

• Rule of law means is that all laws apply equally to all citizens of the country and no one can be above the law.

How Rule of law established in India?

• It is often believed that it was the British colonialists who introduced the rule of law in India.

→ However, historians have disputed this claim because:

2. Indian nationalists played a prominent role in the development of the legal sphere in British India.
