Fundamental rights are considered very important for the holistic development of a person. The country should create such social, economic, and political conditions in which the capabilities of the individual can flourish and the individual can achieve his desired holistic development. Rights are born and protected only in such a positive environment in society. The human rights movement began in mediaeval times with the demand to control the arbitrary rule of rulers in the world and to satisfy and protect the basic needs of citizens' lives. Human rights are universal and inclusive. In a democracy, human rights are given to every person by birth, and no one can be deprived of their rights. After India's independence, Part III of the Constitution laid down seven fundamental rights for citizens. The purpose of the provision of fundamental rights in the Constitution of India is to protect the citizens of India from any form of discrimination and injustice, to provide equality and freedom, to prevent exploitation, to develop individual self-respect, to maintain human dignity and to promote democracy, social justice, friendship, and brotherhood in India. Human rights and duties are closely related. Human rights can only come with responsibilities. Everyone should enjoy their human rights in a way that does not harm the rights of others. Any person, while enjoying his human rights, should ensure that he is not violating the human rights of others. The assumptions behind giving fundamental rights to citizens in India have not been realised in true sense.
