Understanding the foundational principles like Rule of Law and Due Process is critical for civil servants to ensure fair governance, protect citizens' rights, and prevent arbitrary use of state power, especially when dealing with dissent or perceived threats.
The Rule of Law is a fundamental constitutional principle that mandates that all individuals and institutions, including the government and law enforcement agencies, are subject to and accountable under the law, ensuring fairness, justice, and predictability. Due process refers to the legal requirement that the state must respect all legal rights owed to a person, ensuring fair treatment through the judicial system.
