Why make this DCJurySysMAAGC draft ?
.
This draft is a subset of draft DCJurySys. The DCJurySys puts Jury Trial in all cases, while this DCJurySysMAAGC law-draft puts Jury Trial only for some specific crimes such murder, crimes against women, adulteration etc. So if DCJurySys gets passed, then this DCJurySysMAAGC law-draft is not needed. But if DcJurySys has not passed, then this law-draft creates a change -- that murder etc cases will be tried by Juries and Juries only. But other cases will remain judges till law-draft is printed to put Jury in those cases as well.
.
Now a question comes - if DCJurySys covers all cases, then why is this draft needed at all?
.
Answer is - in activism, DCJurySysMAAGC helps !!! IOW, DCJurySysMAAGC has huge merit from activism PoV.
.
Many anti-Jury folks say that 'Jury System will result into a huge damage because commons dont know law and so commons will give all wrong verdicts.', And many persons who are less familiar with JurySys get confused and scared with this argument. And hesitate in supporting Jury System.
So here 'JurySys over murder, abduction cases etc' comes to help.
.
So now say the activist is campaigning for "JurySys over murder etc cases" to an audience from general population. And say if an anti-Jury person makes argument that "commons dont know law". Then the pro-Jury activist can put a counter argument before audience that "see, I am advocating Jury system over cases of murder, abduction, adulteration etc ; and so statements that commons do know what is murder etc and what are laws about murder etc dont apply ; and even then , this anti-Jury person is saying that commons dont know about murder, abduction, adulteration etc and so IMO, this anti-Jury is person is wrong".
.
Now many in audience will see that commons do know what is murder, what is abduction, what is adulteration etc etc. And so the anti-Jury person, who says that "commons dont know laws on murder etc" will look bad. And anti-Jury person will NOT be able convince the audience that "There should be no Jury Trial over murder cases".
.
So what problem does DCJurySysMAAGC reduce?
.
It makes it easy for pro-Jury activists to convince audience to bring Jury System,over one type of case at a time. And with that, Jury System can come over ALL types of cases.
.
So DCJurySysMAAGC has plus point from activism point of view.
.
And basically, I have kept one law-draft called as DCJurySys which is JurySys for all cases
.
And then there are 100 law-drafts called' as
.
(1) JurySys over murder, abduction, adulteration, gohatya, corruption
.
(2) JurySys over corruption, atrocity, inefficiency in policemen
.
(3) JurySys over corruption / atrocity / inefficiency in govt hospitals
.
(4) JurySys over corruption / inefficiency in govt schools
.
(5) JurySys over corruption / inefficiency in hospitals
.
(6) JurySys over employee employer and labor cases
.
(7) JurySys over GST evasion and corruption of GST staff
.
(8) JurySys over family dispute and deciding alimony and child custody
.
and so on.
.
IOW, when activist is campaigning for all these JurySys, the anti-Jury person will no longer be able to say "Jury doesnt know what is atrocity", "Jury doesnt know what is corruption" and "Jury doesnt what is family" so on !!!
.
So in some cases, pro-Jury activists may be able to convince the voters to send orders to MPs via sms with hashcodes of those Jury Systems. So chances that Jury System will come increases
