The '''Universal Declaration of Human Rights''' ({{lang-hi|मानवाधिकारों की सार्वभौम घोषणा}} (UDHR) is a global document ratified by the [[United Nations General Assembly]], which establishes the rights and liberties of every individual. It was crafted by a UN committee led by [[Eleanor Roosevelt]] and was adopted as Resolution 217 during the General Assembly's third session on 10 December 1948, at the [[Palais de Chaillot in Paris]], [[France]]. Out of the 58 member states of the [[United Nations]] at that time, 48 were in favor of the declaration, none opposed it, eight abstained from voting, and two chose not to participate in the vote. | The '''Universal Declaration of Human Rights''' ({{lang-hi|मानवाधिकारों की सार्वभौम घोषणा}} (UDHR) is a global document ratified by the [[United Nations General Assembly]], which establishes the rights and liberties of every individual.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a pivotal document in the evolution of human and civil rights. It comprises 30 articles that outline an individual's ''basic rights and fundamental freedoms'', emphasising their universal nature as inherent, inalienable, and applicable to all people. The UDHR was adopted as a ''common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations'', obligating countries to acknowledge that all humans are ''born free and equal in dignity and rights''. This principle applies irrespective of factors such as ''nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status''. | |||
