Abstract

“All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.” Article 1, Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948). Human Rights are most essential for the fullest development of an individual. Human rights are the claims of the individuals, are recognized by the society and are to be enforced by the state. Human rights are inherent in human nature and they are absolutely essential for living as a human being.
