Sleep – ‘Raat or Din’
The right to life just put on some calories. A citizen’s (deshdrohis not included) right to sleep peacefully has been placed under it. Teachers will surely have a hard time telling students ‘Don’t sleep in class’.
Phone a Friend
If a person is arrested, he has the right to inform a friend or relative or any other person (who would hopefully come and help) about his arrest and the place he is
detained in.
Hey, I’M a Lady
A woman cannot be arrested before sunrise or after sunset; that doesn’t mean women can flaunt the sins at that time. With prior permission of a magistrate, a woman can be arrested before sunrise or after sunset, and taken into custody only in presence of a woman police officer.
Cheating in Exam?
Advocate Nikhil Ved says many states have promulgated their own laws. Rajasthan Public Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 1992 vide Extraordinary Gazette Notification states that the use of unfair means at a public examination is an offence and the person(s) found guilty can be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend up to three years or with a fine which may extend up to Rs. 2,000 or with both.
Indecent Behaviour in Public Places
Mr Ved says indecent behaviour, an offence under Sections 110 and 117 of Bombay Police Act, 1951, would be registered as a complaint, but there is no clear definition of the terms ‘obscenity’ and ‘indecent behaviour’ in the Act. The Act also prohibits use of indecent language or disorderly behaviour on a street, at a public place or in an office.
Skipping Essentials
Driving without a horn, or improper horn usage amounts to Rs. 100 fine. Jumping redlights or not wearing a helmet/seatbelt amounts to Rs. 500 fine.
Parking Ramayanas
Parking at a taxi stand, within 15 metres on either side of a bus stop, at corners or any other parking misdemeanor amounts to Rs. 100 fine. A higher fine is clearly a bribe request.
