The creation of the National Human Rights Commission is a significant step forward in India's development. The National Human Rights Commission of India, abbreviated as NHRC, is an autonomous public agency established on October 12, 1993, under the Protection of Human Rights Ordinance of September 28, 1993. The Protection of Human Rights Act of 1993 established it as a legal framework (TPHRA).

Human Rights are widely acknowledged to be necessary for an individual's overall development. Human rights are the rights of individuals that are acknowledged by society and must be enforced by the state. As a result, these rights must be socially respected and enforced by the state government. Human rights are inherent in human nature and are absolutely necessary for living as a human being. Human rights are the bedrock of human existence, self-esteem, and worth. Human rights can be defined as the conditions in which man can archive his self-freedom and fully develop. Human Rights create certain conditions that aid in the development of an individual's individuality. Human rights are more important for human beings to live a life of dignity, to express his opinions freely, to have the freedom to follow any religious dogmas, to run any business, and to participate in financial, educational, and political progress.
