It's
time we obey the rule of law. Sir Ninian
Stephen identified four of the principles which are embodied in the spirit of
the rule of law when he said:
"The
first of the four principles is that government should be under law, that the
law should apply to and be observed by government and its agencies, those given
power in the community, just as it applies to the ordinary citizen; the second
is that those who play their part in administering the law, judges and
solicitors and barristers alike, should be independent and uninfluenced by
government in their respective role so as to ensure that the rule of law is and
remains a working reality and not a mere catch phrase; the third is closely
associated with the second, it is that there should be ready access to the
courts of law for those who seek legal remedy and relief; the fourth is that
the law of the land, which rules us, should be certain, general and equal in
its operation. "
In
'Animal farm by George Orwell' the rule of some animals are better than others
must not be encouraged anymore. we should try to question anybody who goes
against the rule of law. when we do these, the country will surely move to
greater heights.
