Concept of Human Rights in India

Abstract

The concept of human right is based on the assumption that human beings are born equal in dignity and rights but man has made him not equal in many ways. Some were made privileged and some were not. The denial of human rights and basic freedoms not solely is a personal and private tragedy however conjointly creates conditions of social and political unrest sowing the seeds of violence and conflicts at intervals and between societies and Nations. Human Rights are those minimal rights which are available to every human being without distinction of language, religion, caste, nationality, sex, social and economic conditions of the society. These rights enable individuals to fully use their intelligence, talents and conscience to satisfy spiritual and other needs.
