Abstract

The greatest value of human life represented in the recognition of fundamental rights and in fully enabling people to enjoy and exercise these rights to the extent that preserves their humanity and respects their civility. Despite the fact that people with disabilities make up a considerable fraction of the global population, they remain one of the most marginalized and vulnerable groups. Focused measures for the welfare of disabled people are critical in an era where ‘inclusive development' is being emphasised as the proper road to sustainable development. The public's awareness and knowledge of disability rights concerns has risen during the last decade. This paper proposes to examine those human rights which such persons now enjoy specifically in relation to the human right with particular emphasis upon the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2006. The article's second section will look at how these worldwide standards have been implemented. It will specifically consider the relevant provisions of the Right of Person with Disability Act, 2016. This paper also focused on the judiciary role in the upliftment of human rights of person with disabilities Government.
