Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -According to Hindu jurisprudence, Dharma means duty in various contexts. This could mean either religious duties or even social, legal and spiritual duties. Some people also use the word to mean righteousness, which gives it a moralistic interpretation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dharma is duty based concept, however the present law focuses on rights rather than duties.
