What is the difference between peace and human rights in India
IPCA (New Delhi)- Today, when the voice is being raised for human rights in the world, let’s discuss the position of my country India. Vasudev Kuktumbakam This word means all the countries of the world, religion is relative to my country. India is a strange country. India is a country of supreme culture consisting of various languages, religions and cultures.
Many countries invaded my country and through various religious evolutions the India of today was formed. This country was once considered as a poor and underdeveloped country by developed and rich countries. But that India did not give a worthy reply to this insult. Since the freedom struggle, the British have done many atrocities in India.
In 200 years of subjugation, many common people of my country have been martyred, many mothers and sisters have been raped. So human rights have been violated on Indian soil since many years ago. The Jallianbalabad massacre was organized genocide by British rulers. So citizens of India have been oppressed for many years.
Today India’s independence is now old. But my country could be more developed but some social ills still remain in India. Real education has not yet reached the ground label. As an education worker, I have seen many children come to study in government schools who are the first learners of that family. In our country mid day meal is still given so that children come to study. Besides, a child grows up sheltered by the education and culture of his family. But when a child comes home from school and finds his father torturing his mother by drinking local wine, the child develops a negative reaction.
This is how criminals are born in society.
Rape, social crime is born. Lack of education and jobs should be delivered to the ground label. Our brothers and sisters are still considered as low caste people in the society. The number of rapes of Dalit mothers and sisters is increasing. Even after the gruesome gang rape of Nirbhaya, many rapes continue to happen because of ill-education and bad culture. In the name of religion, politics is influencing the society. That’s because most people still don’t know how to live in a free country.
Human rights are universal, inherent, inalienable and inviolable rights for all members of the human family. Human rights are inherent and inalienable rights of every human being. Only humans will enjoy and exercise this right. However, this practice cannot be the cause of harming others and destroying tranquility. Human rights apply everywhere and equally to everyone. This right is both natural and legal right. Bhimrao Ambedkar said – Democracy is not only a tool for government formation. Its main role is the coexistence of different ideas, showing respect and honor to each other.
In 1936 Dr. Ambedkar founded the ‘Independent Labor Party’. In the 1937 elections, this party won 15 seats in the Central Legislative Assembly. At this time Ambedkar published a book called The Annihilation of Caste. In this book, he severely criticized the caste system of Hinduism and the related leaders. In it he vehemently protested the Congress decision to call the untouchables as ‘Harijan’ (children of God) by Gandhi.
Swamiji said ‘cobbler, sweeper, dalit is my blood my brother’.
So my brothers and sisters, wake up, ask for your self-rights and self-respect, understand your right to real education and job, pledge to make a better and stronger India, bright like the sun. Only then will India guide the world one day.
