The
Report of the Joint Committee of Parliament quoted the observations of
Jawaharlal Nehru to indicate the role of legislation in dealing with the social
evil as under:
" Legislation .cannot by itself normally
solve deep-rooted social problems, One has to approach them in other ways too,
but legislation is necessary and essential, so that it may give that push and
have that educative factor as well as the legal sanctions behind it which help
public opinion to be given a certain shape."
