Government SSC Economy Question:

What is amnesty?

Tweet Share WhatsApp

Answer:

Amnesty is a legislative or executive act by which a state restores those who may have been guilty of an offense against it to the positions of innocent people. It includes more than pardon, in as much as it obliterates all legal remembrance of the offense. The word has the same root as amnesia. Amnesty is more and more used to express 'freedom' and the time when prisoners can go free.


The word Amnesty means grace, pardon, mercy.
