<br/><br/> "In South Asia, human rights has been sacrificed for defending the overriding interests of the state. Even as human rights acquires the status of an universal concern, specific national laws and practices have compromised not only the spirit of the constitutions from which they derive, but also made individuals extremely vulnerable to legal and extra-legal forms of coercion." (HIMAL SOUTH ASIAN) This article discusses how the "study of the abuse of human rights and the human spirit in 'democratic India' reveals the extent of the problem of lawlessness by the state, which can only become much worse when all of South Asia is taken into account."
