I think that rules are not always meant to be broken. I feel the context of breaking the rules varies in accordance with the situation. Rules made for public interests must never be broken like following traffic rules etc. For instance if rules are made to do a problem in maths only by a particular way or to adhere to a set of instructions devised by some people in solving some kind of problem is'nt always advisable from my perspective. Have felt so because it hinders a different individual's problem solving ability and creativity. Maybe that person can device a better method or a simpler one. In such instances rules are to be broken.

Yes!rules can be broken, but not upto the complete extent. I feel that all the rules are not meant for breaking them and also I can't particularly list out the rules that can be broken. It depends upon the situation and the importance where it is definitely necessary to break such rules. We are not at all some kind of animals to follow some other with restricted rules and regulations.
We have the right to break even a rule which is strictly implemented all over the nation if we feel uncomfortable. Rules should be in such a way that its implementation is meant for the safety and welfare of the people but not for name sake.

Hello all,
Are rules meant to be broken?
No, I don't think so, in a democratic country like India rules are made for our (the peoples) well-being and its common for all. What does it mean if we make a rule and it's we who breaks them? Yes, there are circumstances when rules must be broken, but only for a good deed and not for an individuals enjoyment.
And about politicians and businessman, as one of my friend here discussed if they are breaking the rules it's us, the same people who should put a full stop to that. Rules are not made to be broken, it should be followed because the world is stable only with rules.

Well, rules are made for a purpose and are not meant to be broken. We need to abide by the rules. This will only do us good. There are some restrictions which are quite uneasy to follow. But we need to adapt to such restricted environment in order to develop and protect ourselves. For example, our government has made it mandatory to always wear a helmet. But how many of us follow this rule? We see a notice which says "DO NOT GO BEYOND THIS LINE". But people just ignore the instruction and put their lives under risk. Rules are made for our welfare and we need to follow them to lead a peaceful and disciplined life.

Rules are made to follow not to break, but sometimes we have to break that rules.
In the case ambulance with a person is coming in a traffic we must allow that vehicle to go by breaking the rule, in this sense it must be violated according to the need. In this case humanity has the prime importance than the rule.
Firstly rules must followed by the authorities then only others also follow.
Politicians vehicles never slow down on speed limited areas, this is breaking.
If we couldn't follow some rule in some circumstances it is not breaking the rule.
So follow the rules and regulations as possible.

Rules need to be follows to establish decorum in every field. Rules are made so that there would be a boundary or limit for everything as we know that everything has a limit. Rule will develop good personality among people. A child while in adolescence should be ruled for some part as because he need to distinguish between wrong and right. School maintains rules it is not abolished.
But I also agree the if any immediate situation need to break the rule it should be allowed like a school boy if came late because of any kind of accident he met in the road then he should be allowed to enter in school.

Rules are something which people must need to follow but I can say that if we will break the rules then maybe we can learn something new. This is like 2 sides of a coin.
We got some inventions and records by breaking rules so I think break rules one time and enjoy life, it's different and wonderful experience.
It's depend on person.
Personally I break the social rules many times to enjoy life, mostly break the social rules made for girls, go against of it and I can live my life because many people are there like me who have their own dreams to fulfill. Who don't like social restrictions.

Hi.
According to me rules are not meant to be broken and should not be. Because rules are made for the betterment of mankind. If we break one rule then it will be replaced by another. If we don't obey the rules then it will be harmful for us only. For an instance now a days people wear helmet will riding bike when they have fear to be caught by police and they have to fine. But they should wear a helmet to save themselves because it is not a matter of him but his family. If we follow rules then we can grow and live a happy life weather it is a road, academy or anything else.
Thank you.

Thank you, friends, for sharing your valuable points.
Here, I want to add my views on the topic.
Rules are not meant to be broken.
Rules are equal to success (result).
For example: - if an athlete is preparing for his national championships. (any sports) that he is going to be part of it after a month, and he is not following his daily routine like practice, diet plan etc, then the result would be not as expected (winner).
So point is that rules should not be broken.
But in some cases, we can break the rules when it is mandatory, but it should not harmful to others.
Thank you.

Hi,
No, I don't think rules are meant for broken. In my point of view rules are meant to restrict anyone to do not cross a boundary. It meant, so that work should go proper and it meant, so that a person be in limit and he should follow a protocol which give the best output from any person and for any organization or work. Rules also consist that if anyone break rules then he should give penalty and this penalty makes all to follow the rules. So if you break rules you will have some loss in terms of penalty, so don't break rules which will make sure that you will be safe and best.
