dc.description.abstract	This paper seeks to examine the human rights discourse and policy implications for India. It seeks to do this by broadly classifying human rights as first generation human rights mainly civil-political; second generation human rights mainly economic and social; and third generation rights mainly demanded by Feminist and Deviant Groups. However, before we do this we need to take a philosophic or ideological stand regarding human rights and pose the question are human rights sacrosanct?	en_US
