tions perpetrated by Indian forces and state police. These basic inherent rights have been guaranteed to every human being of the world irrespective of caste, creed, color, sex, religion and region by various United Nations covenants and declarations on human rights like universal declaration of human rights and international bill of rights. World apex body has every right and jurisdiction to enforce these covenants and declarations in letter and spirit in any country and territory where these covenants and declarations are violated, disrespected and denied and no country has the justification to deny the access and intervention of United Nations organization in this regard. United Nations organization came into existence for the welfare of the world humanity i.e establishment of peace, resolution of disputes and protection of the rights of human beings including the peoples, and territories under colonial rule. Above referred responsibilities are the legal and moral obligations of this world apex body as per the United Nations Security Council resolutions and other resolutions passed from time to time. Unfortunately all these resolutions passed and responsibilities of United Nations remained confined to the extent of theory.
The said world body utterly failed in performing its duties towards the human race of the world. Right from day one it has the history of failure and deception given its defective structural formation including prominently the veto power curse to America, Britain, France, Russia and china. These five countries have been dictating and shaping the world affairs as per their respective national interest. One can say it with reason that only these countries have the say in United Nations organization and rest member countries do not have any hold or relevance, in respect of making decisions on world affairs. The unipolar dictatorship of America is another misfortune to the world. This has not only reduced the world body to a mere showpiece, has made it soul less, ineffective and redundant. These five countries including the unipolar dictator America has forced the world to kneel down before their every decision.
These are behaving ruthlessly in pursuing their policy of dictating hegemonic terms and are forcing the decisions on world affairs as per their own interest. The vested interest of these five countries encouraged India, Israel and nations hell bent on subjugating and oppressing the people otherwise India, Israel and other nations are bound to uphold and respect and internal covenants and declarations on human rights as they are all signatories to these international covenants and decisions and is their legal binding, to remain, strictly and seriously stick.
Addressing United Nations general assembly on 20th September 1999 then U.N secretary general Mr. Kofi Anan said that time has come to initiate global debate on the humanitarian intervention. In his address he identified different aspects of armed intervention in resolving future conflicts. while elaborating Mr. Anan said that such interventions are inevitable now in the near future as some nations are bent on criminal behavior and are perpetrating unchecked genocide and whole sale slaughter of civilians in the name of maintaining national soveregnity.He further said that such massacres and brutal acts against civilians are crimes against humanity and violative of international norms meant for peace, stability and prosperity.Mr Anan further said that this developing international norm in favor of intervention will no doubt continue to pose profound challenges to the international community and both national sovereignty and states interpretation of its national interest can be challenged in the interest of humanity What Mr. Anan said was practiced in many nations by the order of these five nations as per their respective national interest. North Atlantic Treaty Organization N.A.T.O with the headship of America took undue advantage of the humanitarian intervention and without any reason attacked and rocked Iraq and Afghanistan, where lakhs of civilians were ruthlessly massacred for their no fault. And where humanitarian intervention was due and based on reason such colonial and repressive states were let free to further deepen the subjugation and trample the humanity.

Humanitarian intervention was badly needed in India and Israel as both rouge countries have subjugated and oppressed the people in Kashmir and Palestine respectively. Is it not the double standard of United Nations Organization which under the complete grip of Veto power countries is not intervening? Where genuinely needed for enforcing, upholding, respecting the objectives of United Nations Organization and is dancing to the tunes of these Veto power countries including unipolar dictator America.
Resuming to United Nations Human Rights Council as defined by its laws, it has the human obligation to raise voice against the Human Rights Violations in any country and has the every power to order for commission of inquiry in this regard. Then why this double double standard in respect of Iraq, Afghanistan, Kashmir, Palestine and North Eastern states of India. World has to change dictatorships need to be dethroned. Either the closure or restructuring and reformation of United Nations Organisation is must and inevitable to make it the representative of whole humanity in real sense, to give it real power in respect of resolving disputes decolonizing the territories, upholding Humanitarian laws.
