India has a history of oppression, invasions and a system or order brought in existence through suppression. Laws in India came without even caring for the local popular sentiments. India had more of cultural or moral or religious laws and quite  little state laws. After eighth century Ad Indian moral, cultural religious laws were not really welcome by state. State itself was not very much organised and integration or disintegration of state- geographically, authoritatively was so rampant that state as such was not very much visible for the masses. State or even state hood was so confusing and use less for the masses that masses got disinterested with state, king, kings command . King failed to deliver any thing meaningful to the then Indian people. In fact India as a state identity or Indian order or law was totally missing  in the last several hundred years or so. Their was perhaps a cultural bond that came to be identified as India later on which was brought under some sort of real visible order but this order did not reflect people's will or peoples participation. Still at this stagestate did not command a voluntary reverence.
