Right to fair Treatment: Revisiting the Existing Mechanism

Issue Abstract

Abstract
There are various Articles in the Constitution of India and further more in different laws accommodating reasonable treatment to people in authority, however lamentably a large portion of the arrangements have remained paper tigers without teeth. It is by and large poor people,hindered and more vulnerable segments of the general public who are survivors of custodial violations in light of the fact that there is nobody to really focus on them and to secure them. Except if the rule that everyone must follow is maintained against the liable law requirement faculty, custodial brutality will keep on rising. The police must work to ensue that the laws and institutions of the State in no way to violate the life, but rather protect it and promote it. There exists a sort of covenant between the police and people. There must be mutual acceptance and it can be ensured only if the police and people obey the laws which are in force.
Keywords: Civil Rights, Fair Treatment, Law Enforcement,Personal Liberty, Political Rights.
