WORLD HUMAN RIGHTS DAY 2015

ByRonnith Nandy

Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language, or any other status.

What are Human Rights ?

We are all equally entitled to our human rights without discrimination.

These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and indivisible.

Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God & Nature.
