Human rights are derived from the concept of human dignity and the relationship between individuals and organized society. They allow for the full development of one's personality and are essential to living a meaningful life. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the UN in 1948, outlines civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights. It addresses the rights to life, equality, privacy and many other freedoms. In India, the right to freedom of speech and expression is a fundamental right under the constitution, though it is subject to reasonable restrictions in interests such as national security and public order.

Victims of crime have a range of rights designed to ensure their protection, support, and participation in the justice system. These rights include the right to be treated with dignity and respect, the right to be informed about the progress of their case, and the right to be heard during legal proceedings. Victims are entitled to protection from intimidation and harm, access to support services such as counseling and medical care, and the right to restitution from the offender.

These rights aim to acknowledge the impact of crime on victims and to provide them with the necessary resources and involvement in the judicial process.

This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.
