Opening the campaign in Shaba gewog, Dasho Lungten said that in the olden days, laws not never shown to the people. But today with the institution of the democracy, it is very important for the people to know the laws.
Dasho said that knowing the laws will not only prevent people from commiting crime  but also help to understand the court procedures and know one's own rights  in fighting a case.

Some of the important clauses people were made aware were smuggling of the antuques, social peoblesms and their penlities. People were also instructed how to write petition and agreements.
During the campaign, the people were also given annual judiciary reportsand figures.
