About Legal Framework
A legal framework refers to a comprehensive set of laws, regulations, policies, and guidelines established by a governing body to regulate behavior, maintain order, and govern interactions within a society or a specific domain. It provides the structural foundation within which rights, obligations, and duties are clearly defined, interpreted, and enforced. Legal frameworks are essential for ensuring fairness, accountability, transparency, and predictability across both public and private sectors. They establish the necessary rules for individuals, organizations, and governments, promoting justice, safeguarding human rights, and fostering trust within societal and business interactions.
