Q. “Asylum ends where extradition begins.” Explain.

Answer Approach:

Introduction: Briefly explain the two concepts of asylum and extradition and briefly link the two.

• Main body: Discuss about asylum in detail alongwith tits  essential ingredient, etc. Similarly, discuss about extradition in detail along with its essential ingredients. Thereafter, link the two concepts. Show how the two concepts cannot co-exist and the essential ingredients of only one of the two concepts can be fulfilled at any given point of time.

Conclusion: Conclude along the same lines and again make the mention of the statement of the question in the conclusion.

• Tip for students: This is a very predictable question for Law Mains paper. Thus, ensure that you write this answer with the right analysis. Merely discussing about the two concepts without linking the two concepts would not fetch you good marks.
