    DEM 304

    Because of the introduction of the Human Rights Act, the Government had to show commitment to protecting the most vulnerable adults as well as children so now that everyone can access their rights. In the Health care sector lots of organisations are covered by the Human Rights Act. Anyone working in health and care will be working within the requirements of the legislation on a daily basis. The act is about respecting and promoting the rights of individual people. Within social care making sure peoples’ rights are protected is a key part of your professional role. Just because an individual has dementia does not mean they don’t have the same human rights as anyone else. Their rights are not any less important just because they are unable to defend them.

    REASONABLE CLASSIFICATION & ARTICLE 14 :

    Article 14 declares that "the State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or equal protection of the laws within the territory of India". The phrase "equality before the law" occurs in almost all written constitutions that guarantee fundamental rights. Equality before the law is an expression of English Common Law while "equal protection of laws" owes its origin to the American Constitution.Both the phrases aim to establish what is called the "equality to status and of opportunity" as embodied in the Preamble of the Constitution. While equality before the law is a somewhat negative concept implying the absence of any special privilege in favour of any individual and the equal subjection of all classes to the ordinary law, equal protection of laws is a more positive concept employing equality of treatment under equal circumstances. Article 14 of the Constitution enjoins that the State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or the equal protection of the laws within the territories of India. The expression "the State" used in Part III of the Constitution which deals with fundamental rights includes, unless the context otherwise requires, the Government and Parliament of India and the Government and the legislatures of each of the States and all local or other authorities within the territory of India or under the control of the Government of India. The scope and effect of article 14, in so far as it protects all persons against discriminatory and hostile legislation, have been discussed and explained by this court in a series of cases beginning with Chiranjit Lal Chowdhury v. The Union of India (1) and ending with Budhan Chowdhry and others v. The State of Bihar (2). In the last mentioned case a Full Bench of this court summarised the result of the earlier decisions on this point in the words following:"It is now well-established that while article 14 forbids class legislation, it does not…

    Relationship Beetween Directive Priciple of State Policy and Fundamental Rights

    Fundamental Rights and Directive Principle are integral components of the same organic constitutional system and no conflict between them could have been intended by founding fathers. But the view of Supreme Court on the relationship between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles have not been uniform throughout. There are three possible views on the relationship between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles. The first view is that former are the superior to the latter and so the latter must give way to the former in case of repugnancy or irreconcilable conflict between the two. The second view is that Fundamental Rights and directive principle are equal in importance and hence , in case of conflict between the two an attempt must be made to harmonise them with each other. The view is that Directive Principles are superior to Fundamental Rights mainly because the constitution provide that the former are ‘fundamental in the governance of the country’ and it shall be the ‘duty’ of the state “to apply these principle in making laws” and the binding nature of law does not cease to be so merely because it can not be enforced. These different view regarding the relationship between Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles have been pronounced by the judiciary at different times .In the following chapters an attempts has been made to examine the role of judiciary in relation to the Directive Principles with the Fundamental Rights.…

    Fundamental Rights

    1. FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS It is generally accepted that the Constitution comprises rules that regulate the organization and exercise of State power, on the one hand, and the relations between the State and its citizens, on the other. The rules that stipulate and regulate the relations between the State and its citizens and, more generally, the relations between the controlling and the controlled are characterized as public freedoms or fundamental rights or human rights. Fundamental rights determine the percentage of freedom that the members of a certain society have in relation to State power, thus delimiting the size of self-existence and self-determination of every human being. It would also be useful to clarify that fundamental rights, when formulated in the Constitution, have increased formal power. This means that they cannot be abrogated or changed by a formal law or any regulatory deed of the executive power, but they lay down the limits and the legal framework within which State agents should act as regards their relations with the citizens. In this sense, fundamental rights have an interdisciplinary legal character, since they lay down the principal rules of administrative law, criminal law, labor law, civil law, as well as overall procedural law. For the notional approach to fundamental rights, the findings of political science, constitutional history and political sociology are useful, in addition to traditional legal interpreting methods. The enrichment of the list of fundamental rights and the re-conception of the content of the rights provided for in the Constitution are assisted by rules of international law, which are sanctioned pursuant to the procedure of article 28 of the Constitution of 1975/1986/2001 and are applicable as domestic law. An example is legislative decree 53/1974, which transposed into Greek legal order the European Convention of Human Rights (Rome Convention of 1950), whose formal validity is superior to any contrary provision of the…

    Fundamental Rights in India

    Fundamental Rights is a charter of rights contained in the Constitution of India. It guarantees civil liberties such that all Indians can lead their lives in peace and harmony as citizens of India. These include individual rights common to most liberal democracies, such as equality before law, freedom of speech and expression, freedom of association and peaceful assembly, freedom to practice religion, and the right to constitutional remedies for the protection of civil rights by means of writs such as habeas corpus. Violations of these rights result in punishments as prescribed in the Indian Penal Code, subject to discretion of the judiciary. The Fundamental Rights are defined as basic human freedoms which every Indian citizen has the right to enjoy for a proper and harmonious development of personality. These rights universally apply to all citizens, irrespective of race, place of birth, religion, caste, creed, color or Gender. They are enforceable by the courts, subject to certain restrictions. The Rights have their origins in many sources, including England's Bill of Rights, the United States Bill of Rights and France's Declaration of the Rights of Man.…

    f) The Fundamental Rights are claims of the citizens recognized by the state. They are in the nature of denial of certain authority to the government. They are, therefore, negative in nature. On the contrary, almost all Directive Principles are positive in character as they are like positive directions that the government at all levels must follow to contribute to the establishment of social and economic democracy…

Ordinary rights may be changed by the legislature by ordinary process of law making, but a fundamental right may only be changed by amending the Constitution itself. Besides this, no organ of the government can act in a manner that violates them. Judiciary has the…
