Author(s) Dr Rajesh Choudhary
Country India
Abstract This research paper explores the intricate relationship between human rights and political movements in India through a case study approach. It critically examines the evolution of human rights discourse in India, focusing on various movements that have emerged to address issues such as caste discrimination, gender inequality, political repression, and economic justice. The paper evaluates the role of these movements in shaping public policy and legislation, with a particular emphasis on the state’s response, which has ranged from legal reforms to repression. Notably, the study investigates movements such as the Dalit rights movement, women’s rights advocacy, the Naxalite insurgency, and anti-corruption protests, analysing their impact on both society and governance. The paper also reflects on the effectiveness of India’s legal framework in ensuring the protection of human rights, highlighting significant gaps in implementation. Finally, the paper discusses the future of human rights movements in India, identifying the challenges that remain and the potential for further advancements in human rights protection. By drawing on a broad range of sources, this study provides an authentic and comprehensive examination of human rights struggles in India, contributing valuable insights into the ongoing fight for justice and equality.
