Abstract
The population of Pakistan according to the Population Division of United
Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs is estimated to be more than
20 billion1
constituting with almost 50% male and 50% female. Almost 35% of the
population comes under 15 years and is classified in group of children, rest of the
60% comes under the age group of 15-64 years and are hence classified in group
of youth and working people, the remaining percent consist of old people aging
more than 65 years. The pyramid of population is of expanding type that is
considered common for developing countries with high birth and death rates.
People with this trend usually have short life expectancy, low level of education
and poor health care facilities which are the essentials for human existence.
Men have always struggled to build a society which guarantee essentials for
human existence. The assurances of fundamental human rights are the basic
ingredients of governments and for this judiciary can be thought of as the ultimate
protector of such assurances. Government is an institution about decision making
and implementation of policies made for the betterment of the society and Justice
is the first virtue of social institutions and social development in all societies.
The research is aimed towards investigating what the youth of Pakistan which
makes most of the population think about the role of judiciary in the process of
good governance. Judiciary being the strong pillar of state has an important role
in protecting the rights of people. For that we have taken the opinion of the
students of Law and Public Administration through a questionnaire. The
population is sampled by Judgmental sampling technique.
