Write a short note on equality and justice.
One of the key ideas of a democratic government is its commitment to equality and justice. Equality and justice are inseparable. The earlier practice of untouchability is now banned by law. This group of people were denied education, transport or medical facilities and even the chance to offer prayers. Dr Ambedkar was of the view that justice can only be achieved when people are treated equally. The government also recognizes this and makes special provisions for groups within society that are unequal. Sometimes, the society does not value the girl and boy child equally and this is unjust. The government has also made special provisions for equality and justice to the girls.
