ABSTRACT:
The term 'human security’ has to be about protecting people from foreign military aggression, genocide, ethnic cleansing, sectarian warfare, terrorism, violent crime, or other human rights violations as well as from extreme poverty or disease. This kind of human security is applicable to India as well. The first major statement concerning human security appeared in the 1994 Human Development Report, an annual publication of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). "The concept of security," the report argues, "has for too long been interpreted narrowly as security of territory from external aggression, or as protection of national interests in foreign policy or as global security from the threat of nuclear holocaust....Forgotten were the legitimate concerns of ordinary people who sought security in their daily lives". So, the human security significance raised. But both national and human security are used as interchangeably, when implementing public policies in a state, which includes India. There are different perspectives on human security available such as UN, Canada and Japan etc. But the first two are regarded as the major perspectives in this area. The public policies implementation for providing human security to its citizens had been very successful in India.
