Abstract

At present, numerous problems are emerging in human life. Some of these problems started with human life and some have just appeared. The problems associated with human security can be categorized as traditional and non-traditional threats. Traditional problems have been resolved time and again but some new and non-traditional problems have not been solved. One such non-traditional problem is terrorism. Terrorism has become a worldwide phenomenon. In fact, It poses a direct danger to human security and survival. Education of human rights is linked to human security. People, including terrorists, need to be aware of their rights, since they, too, have the right to a fair trial under the law. Even the worst enemy in a civilization has human rights. On the other hand, all the legal means are used to bring in those responsible for a crime to justice. When analysing the core causes of violence and security threats, it is found that abuses of basic human rights are consistently overlooked. The best way to human security is to protect and enforce basic human rights. The recent study begins by bringing to light a major issue/problem: how terrorism poses a threat to human security in India, particularly in India's North-East region.
