They are the great ethical yardstick that is used to measure a government’s treatment to its people. A broad consensus has emerged in the twentieth century on rhetoric that frames judgment of nations against an international moral code prescribing certain benefits and treatment for all humans simply because they are human. Human rights are as old as human civilization, but their use and relevance have been well defined during the recent years. It has gathered more importance in the post-second-world war period, particularly after the Untied Nation’s declaration of Human Rights (UNDHR) in 1948. Human Rights stand for dignified existence of human beings. This book is multidimensional in character with a focus on recurring human rights issues in contemporary India. The book aims at identifying a number of specific human rights issues in India which requires immediate intervention of both state and non-state actors. It also aims to be a reference book for the under-graduate and post-graduate students who want to have an in-depth understating of the contemporary human rights issues in Indian society. (jacket).…
