Summary/Abstract Dignity of the individual was dear to the makers of our Constitution as they had followed the torch lit by Mahatma Gandhi. All individuals, especially the downtrodden, were considered as the manifestation of Godhood by the Father of Nation. Consequently, in the very preamble of our constitution, it was resolved to secure to all the citizens "Fraternity assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity of the Nation." To carry out this intention fully a number of fundamental rights were given to individuals, some of them only bestowed on citizens of India. Barring a few exceptions the fundamental rights function as limitation on the State action. Sufficient provisions for protection against violation of Human Rights by non-state players are incorporated in the ordinary laws of the land. We have only to turn our eyes to some of our subcontinental neighbours to realize how important it is to protect the individual against an unfettered State.
