Law is a means to the end

                     Justice is the end of government just to enjoy the peace of mind. Law is a means to an end. The essence of law is duty. It is a result of constraint struggle; an struggle of conflict with a view to attain peace and order. Law is the guaranty  of condition of life in society assured by the state‘s power constrain. Thus the legal institution may provide the stability in the political sphere ,if we start thinking in the process of rectification of the present problem enunciated by theoretical approach and by the correct analysis of the sociological jurisprudence to promote sociological study in connection with the legal study is the fundamental right for preparation of legislation , which may improve by intelligent effort discovering the best means of furthering and directing such efforts . Thus it is very essential to learn the basic principle of jurisprudence and adopt a positive approach for imparting the justice to the individual litigant in the society.

                        Jurisprudence means systematic knowledge of the law .It is known as science of law Thus the jurisprudence may be considered to be systematic arrangement of the principle of the law  the principle of the law, the principle duly recognised or enforced by the public and legal institution in the administration of the justice .The general rule of external human action enforced  the sovereign political authority in the common law . Jurisprudence is concerned with fundamental conception , the sovereignty does not reside in the legislatures or executives ,but in the total aggregate of persons , who are members of state and are primarily represented by the existing body of electors. The instrumentality of sovereign is endowed with powers to be exerted with on behalf of the legislature cannot invoke the sovereign power of the people to override their will . Thus the sovereignty is vested in the people and not with the government to exercise their sovereign powers . If the government   ignores the protection of social interests of the people then it has no authority to discharge its sovereign powers. Thus one has to find that the sovereign power is exercising its functioning in the ultimate interest of the people , which may attribute sovereignty  to that entity .

                          Jurisprudence is the eye of law. It is innovation of the legal invention for protection of Human behaviour, which maintain intense relationship  for advancement of mankind . Thus the jurisprudence is the wisdom of law , which is the ultimate purpose in pursuit of the advancement of Human conduct , If we are not aware with the realities of the life and the problems of the society , we may not be discharging the duties of sovereignty . The legal institution may not serve its purpose if other considerations have the over riding effect and there after the habitual obedience from bulk of human society will completely be vanished . Thus there should  be the attempt to change the law within a reasonable living stream , but it may not become stagnant pool of conflicting precedents. If the subject of the law is the science of the man to the political ethics , the legislation may perfectly regard  to discharge its duty in the strictest sense The science is not limited to the study of external conduct. Thus the first requirement of law is to correspond with the  actual feeling and demand of community . The guardian of the law have made no serious efforts to curb the number of cases and they could not be worked out inspite several assurance of the Hon’ble Court.

                          The legal Institution of the knowledge of jurisprudence and the social requirement of imparting justice to the litigants requires that the exercise of the judicial precedents may not be top harror and unconscionable as it may loss site from the very basis for which the law is meant for we cannot confine ourselves to the formal legal; materials ,but we have to go beyond to find out now people  actually  live in the society . The centre of  gravity of legal development lies not in legislative nor jurist’s science nor in judicial decision but in society itself . If we want the real law regulating the people , we have to become aware with the hardships suffered by the litigant people and for now the same is being is ignored as what is in actual practise governing the relations of the employer and employee , some limit has to be drawn because otherwise jurisprudence will dissipate its energy over too widen area .

                     when the Hon’ble  Court found the lapses and dereliction of the duties on their part , the justice cannot be given to the delinquent ,simultaneously for frivolous litigation should also dealt with exemplary cost against the fraudulent litigants as fraud and justice never dwell together and fraud and deceit defend or excuse no man .The Hon’ble  Supreme Court in the cases of S.P.Changalvaraya Naidu (dead) by L.R Vs Jagan Nath (dead) by L.R repoted in A.I.R 1994 S.C 853 ,inre, Indian Bank Vs M/s Satyam Fibres  J.T 1996 (7)S.C. 265 and in the case of Municipal Corp. of Delhi Vs Kamla Devi A.I.R 1996 S.C page 1733 has dealt with this aspect and found such proceedings by way of sharp practice , which are designed to abuse process of law and impose exemplary cost against the litigants . It its the need of the time the very public office should have its accountability in respect of discharging its legal obligations and for that purpose , there should be the appointments of the officers and the legal experts instead of leaving the matter to the discretion of the administration only then the justice may be realised to the individuals from the courts of law. Mankind must either give themselves a law and regulate their life by it or live no better than to limit natural liberty of a particular man such a manner as they might not hurt anyone. A herd of wolves is quieter and more  reasonable than the mob for one reason or other.

                      The importance of the justice is the wisdom of the law , as the law is without doubt a remedy for greater evils , yet it brings with it evils of its own . The object of the criminal justice may be referred from the angle of its implementation in the society . The deterrent aspect ofd the punishment is to protect society .According to Hindu Mythology penalty keeps then people under control , penalty protects them , penalty remains awake when people are asleep , so the vice have regarded the punishment as the source of righteousness. The preventive aspect concentrates on the prisoners to prevent them for offending again in future . The retributive theory is considered to allow the victim to take the revenge . Plato was the supporter of his theory to quote him ; “ If justice is good the health of soul as in justice is its disease , chastisement is its own remedy” Judicial punishment are serve as  a mean  ---- good for the society . Everyone gets what is his due according to his deeds. The re-affirmative theory  with the object to bring the moral reform of offender which unfortunately has been adopted as that of criminal justice has assume undue prominence on the other aspects of the criminal justice . This is the reason why the crime has now perpetuated in every sort of walk of life.

                                   Let us examine the actual purpose of the legal institution in the context of providing justice to the individual .Society has now emerged with a complete deteriorated conditions of life. The existence of the individual citizen is on the stake in every walk of life . If we forgot the realities and start building the new structure on the basis of hypothetical presumptions ,we are bound to fail in administrative of justice .
