Fundamental rights and duties are two sides of coin

I have been witness to many movements and many campaigns that involve rights of those concerned. Human rights, animal rights, women’s rights, child rights, minority rights, prisoner’s rights, right to freedom, right to education, right to potable water, right to fight, right to eat, right to sleep, rights of the aged, rights of the marginalised, rights of refugees and war victims, rights of these and rights of those, rights of the left and rights of the right, etc, etc. The list is endless. It is not my intention to mock those who are suffering and those whose rights have been deprived but I at times wonder why the activists and concerned souls who are serving the deprived don’t want to delve into their own duties and the duties & responsibilities of those whose rights they seem to support, uphold and protect.
