00:00I understand that today there is a trend of custodial death and police atrocity.
00:09But in terms of human rights, India and the rest of the world have different beliefs and situations.
00:19If we evaluate this from the perspective of the rest of the world, it may not be right.
00:30The Indian government should never allow the death of a person who is a victim of terrorism.
00:33This is a very important issue.
00:35We are thinking about this issue.
00:37In the last five years, we have seen that people are not aware of the reality of the situation.
00:42There is a lot of hatred and discrimination.
00:44When the government gets rid of the terrorist, it is not just a matter of money.
00:46It is a matter of human rights.
00:48We have to make sure that there is no corruption.
00:50We have to make sure that there is no corruption.
00:52Terrorism and crime.
01:24After 1990, 40,000 people in Kashmir faced terrorism.
01:32Their families have no human rights.
01:35I believe that the people who have suffered from terrorism and Naxalism,
01:41those who have been hurt by it,
01:45no one has violated their human rights more than them.
01:50But India and the rest of the world have different beliefs and situations regarding human rights.
02:00If we evaluate this from the perspective of the rest of the world,
02:06it may not be right.
02:09As far as children are concerned,
02:125 crore people in the country live without a home.
02:18So don't they have a violation of their human rights?
02:223.5 crore people who have not received electricity after 70 years of independence,
02:29don't they have a violation of their human rights?
02:32Even today, in about 10 crore families,
02:36a few years ago, toilets were not available.
02:41It was not a violation of women's human rights.
02:44But it has never been discussed from this perspective.
02:48For the first time since 2014, after independence,
02:53Narendra Modi government has taken all these problems one by one,
03:00and has tried to protect the human rights of more than 70 crore people.
03:08But I believe that it needs to be put in front of the world.
