Covers key human rights events of 2007 in the South Asia region that includes, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. The report indexes the human rights records of the member States of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) - the subregional inter-governmental organisation. Indexing human rights records of the governments is a controversial exercise as there are no foolproof or universally acceptable yardsticks to measure records. Given the scale of the task, this report is not exhaustive but rather aims to chronicle patterns, practices and the implications for the concerned countries.

This book examines the achievements made by India in protecting Human Rights during the fifty years of its Independence, and the unfulfilled aspirations in areas of Human Rights that remain controversial. It is a compilation of articles contributed by eminent personalities like former Union Ministers, legal luminaries including former Chief Justice of Supreme Court, social activists and veteran freedom fighters. Childs right to healthy upbringing, education and equal opportunity are put in sharp contrast with the harsh reality of the predicament of child labourers. The Supreme Courts verdict on children right to education and child labour, government inaction and public indifference are put to close scrutiny. The factors which are important in terms of observance of Human Rigths are covered extensively.

"The report, "'Bound by Brotherhood': India’s Failure to End Killings in Police Custody," examines police disregard for arrest regulations, custodial deaths from torture, and impunity for those responsible. It draws on in-depth investigations into 17 deaths in custody that occurred between 2009 and 2015, including more than 70 interviews with victims' family members, witnesses, justice experts, and police officials. In each of the 17 cases, the police did not follow proper arrest procedures, making the suspect more vulnerable to abuse"--Publisher's description.
