INDIAN LAW AND POLICE IN A PARAGRAPH
The Indian police carried out a raid and closed a factory on the basis of child labour
prevention laws.The children who wre working there were all set free.Most of those
children said – “We are orphans and to eat we have to work b’cos government provides
no food for us.The reply was swift and crude : “It is against the law”.The children said –
“then we have to beg or else we will have no food”. “That too is against the law”, the
policeman incharge said rudely.”Then we have to commit suicide”,said the children.The
policeman shouted-“That is also against the law;do you understand now? ”If we cannot
work and cannot beg,then we will die from hunger”,replied the crying children.”That you
can do” was the answer.”There is nothing illegal in dying”.
