    The impact of COVID-19 pandemic on human rights
    (Maltepe Üniversitesi, 2021) Soni, Yashna; Alluri, Sai Sree Sruthi; Anand, Swapnil
    As the world continues to succumb to the ill effects of the coronavirus, one of the major issues that has been and is brewing since the pandemic hit the world is of human rights laws. During the pandemic, nationwide lockdowns were imposed in various countries which enhanced the value of human rights policies and shifted the major focus of the countries towards it. The research highlights the shortcomings that many countries witnessed at the global level in light of the loopholes in the human right policies so that society as well as individuals decry the mistakes and learn from those to be better equipped if the world faces a pandemic again. The main focus of the research is India, which recently accounted for nearly half of the coronavirus cases worldwide. The study analyses the grey areas which lead to the human right violations pivoting around the migrant labour crisis, the reopening of the economy, public health mismanagement, educational crisis and xenophobia using quantifiable data. The fundamental cause that caused the majority of human rights violations could be associated with a lack of awareness by the people and the fiasco of the government to manage the disaster. The study further drills down to emphasise the roots of the issues that caused the human right violations. The research emphasises the significance of human rights in the need of hour. The pandemic brought the whole world on its knees but even in the most unpropitious situations, human rights should not be ever compromised.
