(i) Every one desires a system where security, dignity and fair play are assured to everyone. No one should be arrested without proper reason and information. And if someone is arrested, he or she should have a fair chance to defend themselves.
(ii) Such assurance cannot apply to everything. One has to be reasonable in what one expects and demands of everyone else, for one has to grant the same to everyone.
(iii) But the assurance does not remain on paper, that there is someone to enforce these assurances, that those who violate these are punished. In other words, people want a system where at least a minimum is guaranteed to everyone – powerful or weak, rich or poor, majority or ****. This is the spirit behind thinking about rights.
