I wonder about the use of the term "Law and order" both in the heading and in the section. The term can have ideological significance, at least in North America and maybe the UK, as discussed in Law and order (politics). How about changing the section heading to "Courts and policing", and in the section itself, "is responsible for law enforcement in the state"?

This was new to me and was interesting to know that it has a different meaning. In general parlance, Law and Order refers to the preservation of the rule of law, as the first line mentions in the corresponding page. In Indian parlance, Law and order is the common term used to refer policing and courts. It is commonly used in the media 1, 2, 3 and in the official naming convention of the police: The general policing is referred to as police - law and order 4. So my opinion is to keep it as is and simple as per common usage. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 05:00, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
