Please help me understand this Indian "law"

RE: Please help me understand this Indian "law"
(July 25, 2018 at 1:13 pm)popeyespappy Wrote: Google says the actual intent of this law is to protect people from unintended consequences of their actions. It is a good samaritan law. An example of the intent would be to protect a surgeon performing a risky but potentially life saving operation on conjoined twins where one of the twins dies as a result of the procedure. Under this law the surgeon couldn't be held responsible for the death assuming there wasn't some type of gross negligence. If it is used to allow people to beat the shit out of children then that's a problem with the way Indian courts apply the law, not necessarily with the law itself.

Also keep in mind that wording is a translation from Hindi. It might not come across well.

How is a law, worded thusly, going to avoid being abused?
