We all are living in a welfare state and state is owing duty to maintain Law and order in the society. No one can take the law in their own hands. If any offence has been committed to any person and anyone violating the fundamental rights of other person than he should go to police and report the incidence. Now the question is…. why he is approaching police? He wants Justice and Justice means complete justice that should be seen from both facets. Justice includes everything such as punishment to offenders and compensation to victims. Now-a-days trends have been changed and victims are receiving the compensation in addition to the punishing the offenders.
