Human Rights are those rights which are inherent to the Human beings and which they are entitled to enjoy without distinction of race, colour, religion, language, gender, birthplace, social, economic, political and other status.

The rights relating to life, liberty, equality, and dignity of the individuals guaranteed under the Constitution or embodied in the international convenants and enforceable by courts.

But violations of human rights in many of the countries have led a international orgnaisations to take measure to protect them at global level. Hence Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was accepted on 10^th December 1948 by the U.N. through its resolutions. The basic purpose behind this is general interest.

The practice of Natural rights encompasses political, economic, social justices, freedom of speech, equality, respect to all, right against exploitation, right against gender-based inequality, religious faith without interference.

The violation of human rights is multifarious. They are:

1. To protect civil liberty: All men born equally and they have the libery to shape their lives. Constitution of India guaranteed these rights in the part III to citizens. But in actual practice dalits, women and children are being supressed and exploited.

2. To remove slavery: It is constitutionally banned. But it is active in many parts of the country. Hence agitations become inevitable.

3. To protect family: Every citizen has the right to family life. Due to modernisation, youth are heading towards inter-caste and inter-religious marriages. Dowry harassments end up in either suicide or murder.

4. To protect the rights of dalits: Injustice, attrocities, social ostracism, Made-snana, dalits being forced to carry night soil by upper caste people, etc are clear violations of human rights.

5. Refusal to file cases: Though the aggrieved dalits approach the authorities to file the cases against upper caste people, it does not get filed due to the interference of some politically dominant castes. Even when physically abused, medical aid and police protection are denied.

Political Implications:

1. National Human Rights Commission: The Commission came into existence on 8th January 1994 consisting of a Chairman who is retired or sitting Chief Justice of India along with the members. The Commission has to prepare a list of human rights and get the approval by the government.

Whenever a violation is committed, systematic enquiries are to be conducted and transparency should be maintained with the help of judiciary. The commission has to enact new laws whenever the existing laws do not cater to the needs of the inquiry. While doing so, it has to respect the prevailing international laws, contracts, and resolutions.

2. State Human Rights Commission: As per the Human Rights act of India, each state is authorized to establish a State Human Commission consisting of a Chairman who is retired or sitting Supreme Court judge or Chief Justice of High Court along with memebrs. As per the direction of the Act, the Commission was set up in Karnataka in 2005 in the same model to that of national level.

3. Child rights: Violation of Human rights particularly on child rights are seen everywhere. The Deputy Commissioner is authorized to look into the details of exploitation on children. Measures are to be taken to register the complaints through child helpline in matters related to child labour, child abuse, encouraging begging and others.

4. Creating Awareness: Speedy disposal of the grievances registered in the commission at the different levels prove that people are definitely aware of the movements and its achievements. Human Right Movements have gone a long way in providing peaceful and happy life by creating awareness and remedies for the grievances.
