About us

We're a team of volunteers working for different Human Rights organisations in India

Why we created humanrights.in?There are several amongst us that can contribute to the society. We are either not able to take out time or we're just too laid back. After all, enjoying a session of evening drinks is much easier than volunteering for a Human Rights organisation to fight for someone else's life. But the joy that one gets upon seeing a smile on the face of someone whose been a victim of human rights violation is uncomparable.We've created this site to help you learn about the organisations that are selflessly working towards the protection of human rights and social causes so that you can support an organisation that you relate to. We provide all the information that you would need, from membership criterias to contact details of some of the most respected organisations in India.

"Its time to Cut the Crap!"Most of us want to do something for the society. But we are all so busy with our personal and professional lives that despite of having a heart that wants to help others, we continue to turn our back towards something that our inner voice always asks us to do - help othersIts high time we cut the crap and do whatever we can in whatever way possible to protect human rights.

Candle Light Protests

There was a time when citizens' protests, candlelight vigils had not become a way of life. But, a little nudge was all it took Indians to raise their finger in protest of justice being denied in Jessica Lall's murder case. Chandigarh based Human Rights Protection Group ( has a presence in New Delhi as well) started it all and the group is better known as Middle Finger Protests.

Capt. Sumit Kohli case

One of the most shameful cases in India, Captain Sumit Kohli was found dead in his room at one of the base of the Indian Army in J&K. The Army claimed it was a suicide and the family alleged that he was killed by his seniors. The Defence Minister supposedly went back on his words of getting the case re-investigated. This is when the family approached Human Rights Protection Group (Middle Finger Protests), the group has been organising public awareness campaigns and Candle Light vigils apart from arranging legal assistance through the best Human Rights Advocates in India, Mr. Ranjan Lakhanpal. Mr Lakhanpal has instilled new life into the case and has raised the hope of all well wishers of the Kohli family once again.

Jessica Lall murder case

In the film 'No One Killed Jessica', Rani Mukherjee is seen interviewing a group of activists from Chandigarh, who were demanding justice for the deceased model. Led by a young, self-proclaimed activist, the group swelled to a few hundreds which went on to hold candle lights vigils and protests.Not a fragment of the film-maker's imagination, the group, then known as 'Middle Finger Protests' actually exists and continues to work at the grassroots as the Human Rights Protection Group. Not to be mistaken as an NGO, it encourages individuals and organizations to work towards protection of human rights in India. Source: The Times of India (front page) Jan 16, 2011
