• Description:
This book offers a critical evaluation of contemporary human rights law and practice, with a special focus on India. It covers issues relating to life, liberty, equality, and human dignity, reflected in international human rights law, constitutional guarantees, judicial decisions, and legislation. Organized into nine chapters, it begins with the theoretical foundations of human rights law, followed by detailed discussion on civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights. It addresses protection against inhuman wrongs, environmental rights, and human rights within Indian Constitutional Law. The latter chapters emphasize the rights of women, children, indigenous peoples, minorities, and people with disabilities (divyang).
