Human rights are not static but dynamic. The emergence of human rights has yielded manifold benefits to man. Human rights are viewed today collectively as well as by the individual human being. The raison d'être of the book is to examine the problem of enforcement of human rights. A legal right must have a remedy in the event of its breach-Ubi jus ibi remedium. Human rights are no exception to this rule. An attempt has been made in the pages that follow, to examine the enforcement mechanism of human rights. A special mention has also been made of the regional machinery that has come into existence. This book examines human rights under the Indian Constitution and the related Acts in the light of standards outlined in various International Instruments. The book also focuses on the National Human Rights Commission and its reports since its inception; further, it would not be wrong to say that the book is an indispensable guide to law students, law teachers, advocates, social workers and activists.

The malaise of corruption has become deeply embedded in the political and social fabric of the Indian society. The increased frequency and scale of corruption have had deleterious effects on a wide range of issues. Corruption, therefore, must be viewed not just as an issue of law and order or of the criminal justice system; instead it has larger and adverse implications for development initiatives, transparency in administration, economic growth, access to justice, and human rights. This important and timely work adopts a new approach for analysing corruption—corruption as a violation of human rights. Highlighting the inherent deficiencies in the existing institutions, mechanisms, laws, and law enforcement agencies, the book strongly proposes the adoption of a multi-pronged strategy for eliminating corruption. This includes the creation of a new legislative framework, an effective institutional mechanism, a new independent and empowered commission against corruption, and greater participation of the civil society. It also compares India's experiences of combating corruption with many societies in Asia including Singapore and Hong Kong.

"The report, "'Bound by Brotherhood': India’s Failure to End Killings in Police Custody," examines police disregard for arrest regulations, custodial deaths from torture, and impunity for those responsible. It draws on in-depth investigations into 17 deaths in custody that occurred between 2009 and 2015, including more than 70 interviews with victims' family members, witnesses, justice experts, and police officials. In each of the 17 cases, the police did not follow proper arrest procedures, making the suspect more vulnerable to abuse"--Publisher's description.

With this in mind, the publication is intended for all those who seek a basic understanding of NHRIs, the work they do, how they interact with States, civil society and the international community, and how to support their work.
