The concept of human rights is as old as the ancient doctrine of natural rights founded on natural law, the expression human is of recent origin. Human rights are those minimum rights which every individual must have against state or other public authority by virtue of his being a member of human family, irrespective of any other consideration. The protection of human rights has now become one of the keystones in the arch of peace, democracy and development. The number of procedures for guaranteeing human rights has been increasing for years, but guaranteeing human rights also means setting up jurisdictional controls to punish any violations that occur.
