Chauhan, Director, Shri Ram College of Engineering, Dr. Ashok Kumar, Director, Shri Ram College, and Dr. Saurabh Mittal, Vice Principal, Shri Ram College.

Initiating the program, college spokesperson Ms. Anchal Agarwal said that human rights are the fundamental and universal rights of human beings, from which no person can be deprived on the basis of race, caste, nationality, or religion. Human rights include equality in economic and social rights and the right to education. On December 10, 1948, the United Nations issued the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, emphasizing the protection of human values ​​and ideals.

Dr. Ravindra Pratap Singh, while explaining the objective of today's program, said that the main objective of human rights is to provide security to human dignity. The efforts made by the countries affiliated with the United Nations since 1950 to celebrate Human Rights Day are commendable.

Following this, the students participating in the program expressed their views. Student Smaira said that all individuals are born free and equal in dignity and rights. Student Junaira said that human rights are related to human beings because of their special existence, and therefore they are inherent from birth. Student Sapna said that although the current situation of human rights may seem attractive, human history is full of cruelty, violence, and atrocities. Student Rashi Goyal provided information about the Human Rights Commission. Mr. Vishvendra Panwar, spokesperson of Shri Ram College of Law, also expressed his views at the program. Mr. Sita Ram, ADJ (Secretary), District Legal Services Authority, Muzaffarnagar, stated that a human being is born as an infant, and from the moment of birth, the infant naturally acquires the right to live a life of dignity as a human being. Every human being has the right to freedom, equality, and respect, and an open path to progress in life and work in any field of society. Human rights were implemented very late in India. The Human Rights Act was enacted on September 28, 1993, and in light of this, the government constituted the National Human Rights Commission on October 12, 1993, to protect the interests and rights of citizens. He also described in detail the functions, powers, and working procedures of the Human Rights Commission.
The Principal of the college, Dr. Poonam Sharma, expressed her gratitude to all the guests.
