Proposed Law on Incarceration Sparks Debate on Clean Politics

Proposed Law on Incarceration Sparks Debate on Clean Politics

Imagine a new rule: if a top leader like the Prime Minister or a Chief Minister spends more than a month in jail, they can't be in charge anymore.

This is to make sure people in power are honest.

Some people like it because it could make politics cleaner.

But others worry it could be unfair because people are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

There are fears it might be used to get rid of political rivals, especially with the legal system sometimes taking a long time.

So, the government is thinking carefully if this is a good idea or not.
