520 _aRights and duties are one of the primary concerns of the human civilization. These are closely connected with liberty, growth, development, dignity, responsibility and welfare of the general community. However, knowledge about Human Rights is neither popular nor well distributed. As a result, violation of Human Rights is so common that the purpose of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is defeated considerable number of times. The techno-hyped societies are progressing fast but the human values are deteriorating miserably. One of the reasons is ignorance about Human Rights, not only among the illitarate sections but also among the literate and educated ones.Besides the rest of country, North-East India is the best example of being a slaughter house of Human Rights. Atrocities on women at home and in workplace, insurgency, problems of drugs, alcoholism among youths and adults, child abuse and flesh trade, extortion, anti-Indian mentality, delay in receiving justice and growth of non-humanitarian values are clear indication of violation of Human Rights, which has seriously disturbed the peace and tranquility of the region.
