CHAPTER- LAW AND SOCIAL JUSTICE 1. LAW ON MINIMUM WAGES 1) To protect people from exploitation the government makes certain laws. These laws try to ensure that the unfair practices are kept at a minimum in the markets. 2) To ensure that workers are not underpaid or are paid fairly, there is a law on minimum wages. 3) In the eyes of the law it is illegal or wrong to deny workers their wages. 4) There are laws that protect the interests of producers and consumers in the market. 5) The government has to ensure that these laws are implemented which means that the law must be enforced. 6) Enforcement becomes even more important when the laws, the government can control the activities of individuals or private companies so as to ensure social justice. 7) Fundamental Rights guaranteed by the Indian Constitution like Right against Exploitation say that no one can be forced to work for low wages or under bondage. 8) The Constitution lays down no child below the age of 14years shall be employed to work in any factory or mines or engaged in any other hazardous employment. Q.1 Why do we need a law on minimum wages? Protection workers interest, paid fairly illegal to deny wages Check on the unfair practices, 2. BHOPAL GAS TRAGEDY 1) The world s worst industrial tragedy took place in Bhopal 24yrs ago. 2) Union Carbide (UC) an American company had a factory in the city in which it produced pesticides. MIC, a highly poisonous gas, started leaking on 2 December 1984,at midnight from the factory. 3) Within three days more than 8000 people were dead, hundreds of thousands were maimed. 4) UC stopped its operation but left behind tons of toxic chemicals. 5) 24yrs later, people are still fighting for justice, for safe drinking water, for health care facilities and jobs for the people poisoned by UC. Q.1 Do you think the victims of the Bhopal gas tragedy got justice? Discuss. UC refused to accept responsibility Government filled a $3 billion compensation Accepted a lowly $470 million in Appeal against the settlement
2 Supreme Court judgement Damage done can t be retrieved. 3. WORKER S RIGHTS 1) One reason why foreign companies come to India is for cheap labour. Wages that the companies pay to workers are far higher than what they have to pay to workers in poorer countries like India. 2) For lower pay, companies can get longer hours of work. Additional expenses such as for housing facilities for workers are also fewer. Thus, companies can save costs and earn higher profits. 3) One part of the answer lies in what is perceived as the worth of an Indian worker. 4) One worker can easily replace another. Since there is so much unemployment, there are many workers who are willing to work in unsafe conditions in return for a wage. Making use of the workers vulnerability, employers ignore safety in workplaces. 5) Thus, even so many years after the Bhopal gas tragedy, there are regular reports of accidents in construction sites, mines or factories due to the callous attitude of the employers. Q.1 What are the advantages to foreign companies in setting up production in India? Cheap labour Far lower pay Additional expenses, housing facilities, fewer. Cost cutting, more dangerous means. Poor working conditions Long working hours Easy availability of workers High profits 4. ENFORCEMENT OF SAFETY LAWS 1) As the lawmaker and enforcer, the government is supposed to ensure that safety laws are implemented. It is also the duty of the government to ensure that the Right to Life guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution is not violated. 2) Instead of protecting the interests of the people, their safety was being disregarded both by the government and the private companies. 3) With more industries being set up both by local and foreign businesses in India, there is a great need for stronger laws protecting workers rights and better enforcement of these laws. Q.1 What do we mean when we speak of law enforcement? Who is responsible for enforcement? Why is enforcement so important? Law enforcement -a law is obeyed. The government is responsible. The duty of the government - the Right to life. 5. NEW LAWS TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT 1) In 1984, there were very few laws protecting the environment in India, and there was hardly any enforcement of these laws. 2) The environment was treated as a free entity and any industry could pollute the air and water without any restrictions. Whether it was our rivers, air, and 3) groundwater - the environment was being polluted and the health of people disregarded. 4) The Bhopal disaster brought the issue of environment to the forefront. Several 5) thousands of persons who were not associated with the factory in any way were greatly affected because of the poisonous gases leaked from the plant. 6) This made people realize that the existing laws, though weak, only covered the individual worker and
3 not persons who might be injured due to industrial accidents. 7) In response to this pressure from environmental activists and others, in the years following the Bhopal gas tragedy, the Indian government introduced new laws on the environment. Henceforth, the polluter was to be held accountable for the damage done to environment. The environment is something that people over generations will share, and it could not be destroyed merely for industrial development.. Q1. How was environment treated earlier? What has been the change in perception? Discuss. The environment a free entity,industrial pollution Environmental pollution, health disregarded. The Bhopal disaster. Environmental activist s role. The polluter held accountable. The environment t could not be destroyed. Q2. What are the sources of environmental pollution? Discuss with respect to (a) air; (b) water and (c) soil. a) Air: too many vehicles on the roads. Steps taken to reduce it: No concrete steps. Housing colonies, plant tree. Awareness campaigns, stick bills. b) Water:- submersible pumps, wastage of water. use of showers. Water pollution by soap water human waste left on the open ground Steps that can be taken-a meter installation,tanks. c) Soil: use of non-biodegradable materials, excess use of fertilizers Q.3 What are the steps being taken to reduce the pollution? spreading awareness:- Campaigns or Sticking posters. Governments involvement. Strict laws and rules. CHAPTER UNDERSTANDING MARGINALIZATION 1.

MIINORITIES AND MARGINALIZATION 1) The term minority is most commonly used to refer to communities that are numerically small in relation to the rest of the population. 2) The Indian constitution recognized that the culture of the majority influences the way in which society and government might express themselves. In such cases size can be a disadvantage and lead to the marginalization of the relatively smaller communities.
5 3) As a result safeguards are needed to protect minority communities against the possibility of being culturally dominated by the majority. 4) The constitution provides these safeguards because it is committed to protect India s cultural diversity and promoting equality as well as justice.

THE GOVERNMENTS ROLE 1) Given that public facilities are so important, government carries the responsibility of providing these to the people. 2) As private companies operate for profit in the market, public facilities are not provided by private companies. 3) Also private company will probably not be interested in undertaking such work. 4) Private companies provide public facilities but at a price that only some people can afford.
