Rule of law and respect for rights

कानून का शासन और अधिकारों का सम्मान

In Class 9 Civics, within the chapter “What is Democracy? Why Democracy?”, students examine how democracy depends on the rule of law and respect for citizens’ rights. The topic explains that laws should apply equally to all, including those in power, and that democratic government must protect fundamental freedoms, dignity, and equal treatment rather than act arbitrarily.
