Human Touch is a platform for non-partisan portrayal of human rights issues in their different forms. Be it the rights of the weaker sections of our population such as the women, the children, the aged and the physically challenged, or the victims of some social customs, cultural traditions and economic & non-economic policies, the publication brings out the issues objectively and in a manner that would give succour to the people whose rights are either violated or put in jeopardy. Human Touch acts as a forum for scholars, activists, concerned individuals and the common men & women to ventilate their grievances, express their views and to highlight cases of human rights violations, so that appropriate ameliorative actions can be taken by the concerned agencies. It is meant to help the helpless and to speak for those whose voices are not heard. It engages in constructive and incisive debate on issues that are not only of day-to-day concern but also on issues that are important for posterity. This publication is a step forward in realising the vision of Manavadhikar Samajik Manch, i.e. creation of a just and equitable society.
