Discussion
Assertion (A) : The rise of Human Rights Non-Governmental organisations in India has been a recent phenomenon with the National Emergency of 1975 acting as a trigger for their emergence and increased activities.
Reason (R) : Before 1975 there were no human rights violations.
Codes :
Answer: C
The assertion is correct and the reason is incorrect. Human rights NGOs such as the PUCL and the PUDR grew in India after the Emergency of 1975, when civil liberties were suspended and many people were detained.
The reason, that there were no human rights violations before 1975, is plainly false, since violations occurred under colonial rule and afterwards. The options which take (R) to be correct or an explanation of (A) are rejected.
