Breach Of Human Rights
Breach Of Human Rights Here we talk about human rights, all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. In these Human rights, some rights are also included as the rights to life and liberty, freedom of opinion and expression, right to freedom of speech right to work and education, and many more. Every human being has these rights by birth. In India, every citizen of the country has six fundamental rights by birth which are given by the constitution. And no one has the right to breach someone’s rights. But somewhere, in today’s time period, many kinds of cases exist in a society where people of the minority are restrained by the majority to freely live their lives and enjoy their rights. Introduction When we talk about human rights, we should know about what is human rights and how many kinds of rights human beings have. Every human being has 30 kinds of human rights which are defined by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Fundamental rights are also included which are given by the constitution of India to every citizen of India. Fundamental Rights Right To Equality The right to equality (Articles 14 to 18 ) prohibits inequality on the basis of caste, religion, place of birth, race, and gender. It ensures equal rights for all citizens. Right To Freedom These rights (Article 19,20,21A,22 ) are freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of movement throughout the territory of our country. Right Against Exploitation Right against Exploitation (Articles 23 and 24) concerns human trafficking. Cultural And Educational Rights (Articles 29 and 30 ) Cultural rights protect the rights of cultural religious and linguistic minorities by enabling them to conserve their heritage and protecting them against discrimination. Educational rights ensure education for everyone irrespective of their caste, gender, religion, etc. Right To Constitutional Remedies The right to constitutional remedies (Articles 32 to 35 ) empowers the citizens to move to a court of law in case of any denial of the fundamental right. The Preamble Of The Constitution Of India also mentions these factors like, justice, Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity to secure all its citizens. But nowadays we can see in some places minorities‘ rights are violated by the majority. like In some places people of scheduled caste and scheduled tribe are restricted from going to religious places by uppercast people There are lots of cases like these in India, including the whole world. Background When we go into the debate on this kind of topic or subject, landmark judgments play a wide role in understanding the history behind it. These judgments opened up the scope for changes in the context of the future. A recent hijab ban case and a meat ban case are some of them. In these two cases, minorities claimed that their fundamental rights were violated by the majority & authority of India. AISHAT SHIFA VS. THE STATE OF KARNATAKA & ORS. On January 1, when some Muslim students of a college in Karnataka’s Udupi were not allowed to attend classes wearing a hijab as the dress was against the prescribed, norms of the college. In this case, Karnataka High Court bench gave references to many landmark judgments where the word ‘ SECULAR ‘ has been defined. The word Secular means that the citizens have complete freedom to follow and practice any religion. The word ‘ SECULAR ‘ after being added in the preamble was also considered but a three-judge bench judgment of this court reported as Ziyauddin Burhanuddin V. Brijmohan Ramdas Mehra & Ors. This court was considering an appeal against the setting aside of the election of the appellant under The Representation Of People Act, 1957 to the Maharashtra state assembly on the grounds of speeches made by him in the course of the election campaign The term ‘SECULAR’ was also considered by a nine judges bench of this court reported as R Bommai & Ors V. Union Of India & Ors. The court held that the practice of wearing a hijab constitutes an essential religious practice but did not quash the CBSE rule. In this context, Muslims also gave references to the Quran’s Ayah in which the importance of hijab is mentioned. The Quran says “ And not display their beauty except what is apparent and they should place their khumur over their bosoms ’’ (24:31). ‘Khumur means the veil covering the head ’. The second verses is “ O Prophet, say to your wives, your daughter, and the women of the believers that they should let down upon themselves their jalabib.’’ (33:59).’ jalabib means a loose outer garment, as wide dress.’ Meat Ban Case The recent controversy over a ban by a local mayor on selling Meat Over nine days during a Hindu religious festival in India’s Capital is illegal and violates the constitution, our research found. similar attempts made over the last decade in five other states have been struck down by the courts. The ban is, essentially, some argue, a majoritarian writ. the people of the minority said that this act violated their fundamental right, the right to freedom which is inherent in (Art. 19, 20, 21& 22). Observations Of Breach Of Human Rights All human beings have human rights which ensures freedom for all human beings in an equal manner. when we talk about equality before the law it’s required to ensure equality to every citizen in an equal manner. the word ‘ SECULAR ’ mentioned in the Preamble Of India defines India as a secular country where every citizen has the right to follow their religion freely and they are free to practice any religion. The people should also know this thing that when they talk about their fundamental rights they should also respect another ‘s rights. Conclusion The debate on this subject concluded that the Breach of human rights is an infringement of the Constitution. Where there people of the country have no right to freedom then, that state becomes a tyrant….
