Powerful nations, who should set an example for others, show scant regard for law espe- cially when it stands in the way of their own narrow inter- ests. Even the heads of states of various nations have been found to be corrupt or promiscuous or involved in various kinds of scandals. When an ordinary person finds that standards of public and private morality and observance of law have fallen all around, he or she also feels tempted to take recourse to illegal measures. Violation of laws relating to income tax, sales tax, property tax and so on has become common and vio- lation of other civil or criminal laws has now become a sign of one’s posi- tion and power in public life. Use of political influence to defeat the law is now a way of showing the political patronage one enjoys. Today, there is hardly anyone who does not violate or flout the law in one way or another. The tendency to disre- 1      gard law has reached an all-time high. To top it all, there is lawlessness also.
