Human Rights Cell

• HUMAN RIGHTS are based on dignity, equality and mutual respect – regardless of your nationality, your religion or your beliefs.
• HUMAN RIGHTS are the rights all human beings have by virtue of being human beings.
• HUMAN RIGHTS are derived from the inherent dignity of the human person and are defined internationally, nationally and locally by various law making bodies.

• Right to Equality (Articles. 14-18)
• Right to Freedom  (Articles. 19-22)
• Right against Exploitation  (Articles. 23-24)
• Right to Freedom of Religion (Articles. 25-28)
• Cultural and Educational Rights (Articles. 29-30
• Right to Constitutional Remedies (Articles. 32-35)

Purpose of establishing the Cell :

The fundamental rights were included in the constitution because they were considered essential for the development of the personality of every individual and to preserve human dignity. The writers of the constitution regarded democracy of no avail if civil liberties, like freedom of speech and religion, were not recognized and protected by the State. According to them, democracy is, in essence, a government by opinion and therefore, the means of formulating public opinion should be secured to the people of a democratic nation. For this purpose, the constitution guaranteed to all the citizens of India the freedom of speech and expression and various other freedoms in the form of the fundamental rights. Having these perspectives, the institution formulated Human Rights Cell (Fundamental Rights) on 4th February 2019.
