Human Rights Violation: A Case Study of Assam (India)

Human Rights basically and pervasively impact the quality and fulfilment of life of societies in all nations and ensure the prevalence of freedom, justice, peace and order in the world. The task of the protection and promotion of Human Rights is a complex one and requires the cooperation of all sections of society, political parties, non-governmental organizations, lawyers, judges, public servants, teachers, police, media persons and others. The charter of the United Nations makes reference to human rights and fundamental freedoms in a number of clauses. In the preamble, the people of United Nations express their determination "to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small". The United Nations can only live up to the expectations which are raised by its charter and collective efforts are made by all of its organs as also by other organs of international and national society and Governments, inter-governmental and non- governmental agencies and organizations of the world and along with them the individuals share the responsibility of joining in a common human rights effort.
