The term “Law” is derived from old Teutonic root “lag”. We call it “Kanoon” in Nepali language which is derived from Arabi. Generally, it is understood as a system of rules which are created and enforced through governmental institutions to regulate mainly human behavior. In other words, Law is made and applied by authorities to regulate certain behavior of natural person as well as legal person. In fact, different jurists have defined the term “law” in many ways. But, in general, law consists of the certain rules and regulations that must be followed by people of the society.So, it is defined both as the science of justice and the art of justice. By the way, the main purpose of law is directly linked to justice.
Well, after passing 10+2 from science stream, I was in a dilemma for choosing subject. Meanwhile, I became sick unfortunately and was admitted in a Hospital for 15 days. After that I had not fully recovered from my sickness until further 15 days. I became quite weak and lost 7 kg weight during that period. Being discharged from the hospital, I took rest for another 1 month. So, I didn’t get the chance to take the entrance exams held by different colleges/campuses in any discipline in Kathmandu because it was too late.Then, I decided to study BSW in RatnaRajya Campus, Putalisadak and stared to study it.
One day when I was walking on the way to PutaliSadak, I noticed two gentlemen in black coat were talking about the scope and importance of law to teenagers like me. I paid attention to their conversations and stood by them. I got attracted to BALLB course then and thought of taking entrance exam in Nepal law Campus but suddenly one day I heard that Lumbini Buddhist University is also going to start BALLB program this year. This is the first university in province 5 which has just launched BALLB program. My whole mind was changed overnight as soon as I knew that the LBU entrance exam is ahead of NLC entrance exam. Moreover, I also belong to province no 5 even if I have been staying in Patan for 8 years.
So, I decided to study at LBU and was luckily selected as well in a merit list in BALLB Program. I was very much happy at that time because my dream to study law was fulfilled. I would like to thank Dilip Bhattarai Sir and the entire members of LBU for selecting me in this regard.
Actually, there are several reasons behind studying law for me. As we all know that law plays an important role to build and manage civilized society. In the absence of Law, human being tends to do unacceptable things in the society. Day by day, people are grown up with multi-hybrid culture and modern technologies. Consequently, different types of crimes including cyber-crimes i.e. cyber bullying are also done via internet.
So, to control all the crimes including cyber-crimes, rule of law is must and be strictly implemented. Moreover, we Nepali people live in the societies of different castes, races, traditions and culture. if there is not proper law, conflict among the peoples might be come out.So, law should be made and applied to solve conflicts of interest among peoples because it maintains peace and security in the society.
Similarly, in present context, the number of rape crime are increasing day by day. Not only rape crimes, but also murder, cheating, corruption, girls trafficking, domestic violence and so on are also increasing. But victims are still deprived of getting proper justice by newspapers, Radio and TV. It sounds like “SANALAI AIN, THULALAI CHAIN”. So, I want to do my best in such kinds of cases by being a law student or lawyer in future by fighting for justice and rights of poor or helpless people.
I want to contribute to helpless society by doing social works as a social engineer as well. I think as law students; we can bring a lot of rewards in our lives. I see respect and prestige too in law profession. Lawyers have access to handle the cases through lower class people to higher class people i.e. layman to prime minister to president.Besides these things, Law student may play great role in the various major political, legal and social transformation too.
Likewise, I think mostly people can’t find self-confidence in them. By studying law, self-confidence can also be built up. As I know so far, Law students must make different kinds of arguments on different topics. Making such arguments, communication skills can be developed in students as well.
However, there are lots of challenges to meet the above-mentioned things. For that, we must struggle a lot because struggle causes progress and progress gives us happiness and happiness comes from our own actions and those actions are directly related to our struggle.
Now, I remember my dad’s saying ‘time is all powerful in the world. No one is little bit forward than time. We must move on the direction of time. We can’t beat time at any cost. I used to hear these words from my dad but never took it seriously. I am remembering those words of Dad and taking it seriously right now.
Today, I am alone at Butwal. I had been with my relatives and friends since my childhood.Particularly, the time which I spent with my family were too much fun and precious. Time was easily passed while I was with my family.Nowadays, it has been hard for me to pass the time.I feel at times spending 1 Minute is like spending 1 hour.
There was not any tension of anything while I was with my family for all the matters used to be handled by my mom and elder brother. At the present time, I must handle all the matters. it means all the responsibilities borne by them are now on my head. I must stay here by myself for 5 years. I don’t know how am I going to stay here alone for 5 years? But I think time cures it.
I feel aloneness teaches us many things. These lonely days are teaching me every day little by little in several matters. When I was with my family I didn’t pay a single attention to family matters. I used to angry sometimes with my family when I was with them. Now those angry moments have become like nightmare for me. I miss them badly.
Well, your words about time were right Dad that no one is greater than time. Time can take us everywhere.Seriously speaking,I never thought that I would be by myself here. I used to think before that I would be always with my family at least until the completion of my study I desire.
Anyway, I have started to understand and realize the meaning of family and time. Sometimes I get homesick but I control myself. Time has taught me many things which I had not learnt before. Anyway, LBU, BALLB program, Respected Teachers, Books, my classmates and so on will be my family and relatives in upcoming days while residing in Butwal.
At last, Happy Tihar to All !
