| 3 | ✅Gs-4 : Ethics- Bioethics
Q) “Is culling of invasive species ethically justified? Discuss.”
Background : Pablo Escobar- a drug dealer imported these hippos in colombia- they dont belong there- so they disturbed the ecological balance of that region.
❌Dilemma : Killing animals is morally wrong irrespective of outcome vs Strongest justification for culling comes from ecocentric ethics- which side should you take?= This is a classic utilitarian vs deontological conflict
🅾️What would a responsible decision-maker do?- Virtue ethics
⚜️Courage → take difficult decisions
⚜️ Prudence → rely on science
⚜️ Compassion → minimise suffering
⚠️When human-induced ecological imbalance threatens broader biodiversity and human safety, ethical responsibility shifts from preserving individual lives to restoring systemic balance.
📌 “Compassion towards hippos without responsibility can become injustice for environment.

| 4 | ✅Gs-4 : Ethics
🅾️The central conflict is between what is effective in the short term and what is right in the long term.
📌Public institutions exist to serve human dignity. If citizens become mere numbers, vote banks, targets, or collateral damage, ethics has failed.
🌟Thinkers
⚜️Aristotle viewed politics as pursuit of the good life.
⚜️Gandhi held that impure means cannot produce pure ends.
⚜️Rawls argued institutions must be fair to the weakest.
⚜️Ambedkar warned that constitutional morality must sustain democracy.
📍Final take away : When power loses its moral compass, authority may survive temporarily, but legitimacy eventually decays. Politics without ethics can command obedience, but it cannot command respect.
