or personal freedom and political freedom giving appropriate examples.
(b) Joel Feinberg identifies seven liberty limiting principles in Rights, Justice and Bounds of Liberty.
3. Discuss and critically evaluate Jhon Rawls Theory of Justice and its implications for developing societies like India.
4 It has to be recognised that from the right to basic necessities flows an incidental right, or rather, a correlative state duty to facilitate access to justice for the victims of such deprivation. Does that resolve the dilemma of bread vs. freedom1 ?
Comment. What model would you suggest for fulfilment of the basic needs of millions of impoverished in India.

(a) Empowerment of Women as a strategy to bring about equality between men and women
