The Minimum Wages Act, 1948 aims to prevent exploitation of labor by ensuring a minimum wage for scheduled employments. It empowers central and state governments to fix and revise minimum wages in scheduled industries through committees with equal employer and employee representation. The Act defines key terms and sets rules for payment of wages, working hours, overtime rates, and maintenance of records. Employers failing to pay minimum wages can face imprisonment of up to 6 months, fines, or both.

The labor sector of our country faced increased exploitation at the hands of the contractors and thus were unable to safeguard their interests on their own.
Many a times, they were forced to work for long hours at ridiculously low rates, and had no power to raise their voice against such instances.
Hence, in order to ensure the payment of at least such amount of wages that makes them able to fulfill their necessities of life, Minimum Wages Act was enacted in 1948, provisions of which are represented in this particular presentation.

Leadership Lessons from Adolf Hitler:
Adolf Hitler did much evil during his regime in Nazi Germany. Although I do not share his values, but he did do certain things right as a leader to rally a whole nation. Here are some positive lessons that you can pick up from him:
1. Speaking with purpose:
Hitler was a captivating public speaker. He would enrapture crowds with his vision and sense of purpose of the nation. His words moved a country, even the church to believe that they were killing in the name of God. That was the extent of his charisma. While Hitler was a great orator, and that contributed to his ability to capture his audience, it was his deep belief in what he was doing that moved the nation. He gave his nation a new purpose and destiny and they were willing to follow him for it.
As a leader, the strength of your conviction will often determine how far your followers are willing to go through with it together with you.
2. Understanding Human Nature
Adolf Hitler understood human nature very well. He knew how to use human nature to his personal gain and with that knowledge; he rallied the whole nation behind him. You have to understand the thoughts, inclinations of human nature well if you are to be an effective leader as well. This often means a high level of emotional intelligence. Much of human nature can be easily being seen in yourself; especially in your weakness to temptation or any base inclination. You don’t have to study psychology or take a course in human nature to understand them. Often your life experiences might already give you a good clue as to how people behave and how to motivate people.
3. Constant Influence:
Adolf Hitler successfully used propaganda to bring the whole nation under his influence through the constant use of media and communications; he managed to cause a whole nation to think alike to serve his cause. As the propaganda minister in Nazi Germany, Joseph Goebbels says, “If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.” (This quote may have been misattributed to him, but the point is there.) There’s a lesson for us leaders to be learnt here. People become what they are constantly being exposed to. If you constantly read, watch and listen to positive messages, you’ll naturally become positive. And it works vice versa as well. We’d like to think that we are thinking independently of our environment, but the truth is that most of us think, act and believe in a certain way as a result of several unconscious cues from our environment. What is the underlying message you portray to your team each day? The words you speak, the actions you take often have either a positive or negative influence on your team.

MANAGEMENT LESSON FROM RAMAYANA
Ramayana," or "The Journey of Rama," is one of the most compelling Indian epics written by sage Valmiki, who is called the adi kavi, meaning the "first poet" in Sanskrit. It is the story of Rama, who was the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu.
Ramayana consists of seven kandas, which refer to sections. They are:
Bala kanda - The boyhood of Rama.
Ayodhya kanda - The life in Ayodhya until Rama went on exile.
Aranya kanda - Life in the forest with wife, Sita, and brother Lakshman and abduction of Sita by King Ravana.
Kishkindha kanda - The phase in the kingdom of Sugriva, a vanara, meaning "monkey“
Sundara kanda - The journey of Rama to Srilanka.
Yuddha kanda - Also called Lanka kanda, it is about the battle with King Ravana, rescue of Sita and return to Ayodhya.
Uttara kanda - Rama's life as king of Ayodhya, sons' births, testing the innocence of Sita who returns to her mother who is considered the earth goddess, and the demise of Rama.
Provide a concrete vision to followers
Believe in the ability of subordinates to achieve an aim and inspire them to do so
Treat all people equally
Stand courageously in the face of great adversity
Stand for morality but do not engage in judgmental posturing
Consult subordinates on important matters and allow them to give their opinions freely
Follow a code of ethics and be ready to sacrifice to follow it
To be humble and treat everyone with respect
To maintain a calm and peaceful mind devoid of anger
To maintain good company, It is not enough to have a good heart, we need to be careful while choosing friends
Lord Rama portrays a persona of ‘eternal optimist’. The lesson here is to be an optimist and respond positively even in adverse situations

In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
PRECEDENT AS A SOURCE OF LAW (SAIF JAVED).pptxOmGod1
Precedent, or stare decisis, is a cornerstone of common law systems where past judicial decisions guide future cases, ensuring consistency and predictability in the legal system. Binding precedents from higher courts must be followed by lower courts, while persuasive precedents may influence but are not obligatory. This principle promotes fairness and efficiency, allowing for the evolution of the law as higher courts can overrule outdated decisions. Despite criticisms of rigidity and complexity, precedent ensures similar cases are treated alike, balancing stability with flexibility in judicial decision-making.

Victims of crime have a range of rights designed to ensure their protection, support, and participation in the justice system. These rights include the right to be treated with dignity and respect, the right to be informed about the progress of their case, and the right to be heard during legal proceedings. Victims are entitled to protection from intimidation and harm, access to support services such as counseling and medical care, and the right to restitution from the offender. Additionally, many jurisdictions provide victims with the right to participate in parole hearings and the right to privacy to protect their personal information from public disclosure. These rights aim to acknowledge the impact of crime on victims and to provide them with the necessary resources and involvement in the judicial process.
