“Human rights and fundamental freedoms are the birth right of all human beings” and since 1948, this principle has been generally accepted in international instruments and has contributed to the substantive development of international human rights law for protection and promotion of both individual and universal human rights. But still, individuals and groups around the world continuously become victim of human rights violations. In this regard, the hour to hour and daily reports of electronic and print media hearing and reading makes quite disturbing the world people at large.
The matters always concerned in keeping the world terrorism and war free and to confirm continuous peace and development worldwide having been crying human needs are the issues of ‘life, food, dress, shelter, education, religion, culture, health, environment, employment, marriage and choice of spouse, security, freedom, democracy, good governance, equality and justice etc. which give birth to various rights of every individual irrespective of gender, religion, race, colour, language, caste, place of birth, political or other opinion, national or social which deserve remedial measures and protection of law for peace and equal development of all. But in the present day world as no individual and no country exists in isolation and as all we live simultaneously in our own communities and in the world at large we all are very much connected and interdependent and therefore human rights being universally inherent, inalienable and inviolable rights of all members of the human family which the states and their public authorities are to ensure for the people, need global treatment across the planet’.
The charter of United Nations imposes clear, compelling, legal obligations on all member-nations/states to promote economic and social development and human rights through collective and individual efforts. The human rights groups throughout the world are performing commendable tasks drawing attention to violation of human rights and taking steps to implement these rights, protecting one against person, repressive society and polluted environment, and above all, man-made bad laws. But what is needed is action derived from collective wisdom if we are to bequeath a happy peaceful and developed world. To attain the goal, equal protection of law, equal and reasonable opportunities for everybody to avail the course of law to improve out quality of life is a must.
