Abstract

"God Created the Heaven like Earth, But We Men Turn It into Hell through Our Deeds”

Man is both creature and destroyer of his surrounding conditions, which gives him physical food and affords him the opportunity for thinking-related, moral, social and physical growth. In the long and winding change for the better of the human race on this planet a stage has been reached when, through the fast increasing speed of science and technology, man has received the power to change his physical, mental and social environment in huge numbers of ways and on a never-before-seen scale. Both parts of man's the natural and the manmade, are extremely important to his well-being and to the enjoyment of basic human rights, the right to life itself.1 It is pretty difficult to have an open and honest view of the third generation rights. Generally, all of the rights under discussion are very wide in range. “They do not set out clearly stated particular measures and steps to be taken by nations or governments, but clearly states complete and thorough goals. “As pointed in the Right to Development, development means a situation permitting everyone to enjoy to their full extent 'all' rights and freedoms. So, development has variety of parts and makes up an ideal situation that rests on a large number of true and legal elements many of which are not under the control of governments alone.
