ABSTRACT
This paper makes an attempt to address the human rights violation hidden in the disguise of social advancements in India. Furthermore, it makes an attempt to enter into the ambit of The Human Rights (Protection) Act 1993, International Covenants on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), and Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and analyse their binding nature on India. This will also analyse various forms of human rights violations recognized by the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). This paper will also highlight various flaws in contemporary human rights violation countering agencies and would suggest reforms for it. In conclusion, this paper will substantiate its principal argument that there is an imperative need for stringent laws to counter human rights violations.
Keywords: Human Rights, Social Advancements, The Human Rights (Protection) Act 1993, ICCPR, UDHR, NHRC.
