Nowadays, rulers are carving many
laws
,in order to gain access to the common man's life.
Therefore
, many of us opine that governments must frame
laws
 over
people
's way of living too.
However
, I do not agree with
this
 notion and reasons to support my stance are elaborated on in the following paragraphs.
To begin
 with, those who are in support of the above idea assert that
this
 trend would allow the authorities to have a better understanding of the difficulties
people
 face in day-to-day life. In return, it would enable the government to make
laws
 about housing and civil code
accordingly
. On the other side, those who are against
this
 assumption opine that it is a violation of human rights if rulers do so because how to live and where to live is a matter of personal choice, which depends on various circumstances that may vary from person to person. To illustrate, the way of living is decided by income, education and many other factors that are not uniform.
Thus
, it would not be fruitful for
people
 as well as rulers to implement rules over the living.
Furthermore
, it would disturb the harmony between society and the country. There are chances that
people
 would come against the authorities.
For example
, in North
Korea
Add a comma
,Korea
show examples
 the governing body passed a law about the attire of the citizens and
as a result
,
people
 came to the streets against
this
 law and made the government withdraw the rule.
Hence
, to avoid
such
 chaos governments should not touch
such
 issues. In conclusion, undoubtedly it is not wrong to form
laws
 but ruling bodies should not touch sensitive matters
such
 as the living of the commoners.
