                 ‘I do protect human rights, and I hope I shall always be looked up as a champion of
                 human rights.’                                                                —Aung San Suu Kyi





                         Beginning:




                       The 69-year-old Aung San Suu Kyi spent nearly twenty years in prison

                       and under house arrest in Myanmar. Suu Kyi peacefully protested for a
                       democratic government and human rights for her people and country
                       during all these years. She was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991.








                         Exercise and Discuss:



                  Every man, woman, girl and boy has ‘rights’,  simply by the virtue  of  the
                  fact that he/she  is a human being. Rights are the most basic needs that
                  everyone  must  have  to  live  a  dignified  life.  Fulfilment  of  basic  needs  like

                  food, water, shelter and clothing are some of the rights that  people are
                  born  with.  No  person,  country  or  government  can  take  away  these  rights.

                  All human beings are born free and have the right to freedom.
