    5.

     Morals are considered to be universal in nature and value. 1. The laws are
    mainly concerned with the society as a whole and lay down the rules for
    relationship of individual with each other and with the state.
    2. Law is concerned with the external conduct of the individuals.
    3.  Laws are meant by which the evils ends. The justice is achieved.

    4 The observance of law is concerned with duty towards the state.


    5  Law is concerned only with a particular state and society which differ from
    place to place & from time to time.
                      RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LAW & MORALS
    In the ancient society there was no difference between laws and morals, but in
    modern times various theories of law separate morals from laws so many
    differences as pointed out above came into picture. In spite of these differences
    there is a clear relationship between law and morals. For this purpose it can be
    noticed from the following three points :-
    1. Morals as the basis of law:- In the ancient society morals were the basis of all
    laws. All the rules originate from the common sources i.e. morals. The reason
    behind them was in the form of supernatural fear.  The state picked up those
    rules which were necessary for the society of the state. 
    The state put its own sanctions behind their rules and enforced them and these
    rules were called laws. The rules for which the state could not ensure their
    observance wee known as morals.  Thus laws and morals have common origin.
    We cannot totally separate law from morals. Queen v/s Dudley:  It was held that
    moral are the basis of law on the ground of morality, it was not necessary to kill
    the boy for saving their lives.  One cannot take the law into one’s own hands.
    The rule is that none has the power/right to take another’s life to save his own. 
    2. Morals as the list of law:- It has been argued that the law must conform to
    morals. It means the law must be based upon morals and it should not be against
