Spell these out in a letter from Manoj to the district collector.
Explanation:
Manoj's basic right to equality has been trampled upon. Without regard to caste, gender, or religion, everyone has the right to employment under the principle of equality. The right to freedom is the other one that has been transgressed. This right grants anyone the freedom or personal liberty to look for work.
The right to equity is being violated because, in accordance with this, every Indian resident, regardless of caste or socioeconomic status, is equivalent before the law. As it allows for personal autonomy, the right to freedom is also infringed. He or she can run any kind of business or profession.

8. When Madhurima went to the property registration office, the Registrar told her, “You can’t write your name as Madhurima Banerjee d/o A. K. Banerjee. You are married, so you must give your husband’s name. Your husband’s surname is Rao. So your name should be changed to Madhurima Rao.” She did not agree. She said “If my husband’s name has not changed after marriage, why should mine?” In your opinion who is right in this dispute? And why?

She said “If my husband’s name has not changed after marriage, why should mine?” In your opinion who is right in this dispute? And why?
Explanation:
Madhurima has a point. Her right to privacy is being violated by the registrar. Madhurima has complete choice over whether to use her husband's or her father's last name. The clerk went against her right to privacy and her right to free speech by requiring her to adopt her husband's last name. Madhurima is in the right in this argument. Her right to privacy is being violated by the Registrar's inquiries and meddling in her private matters. The custom of changing a woman's last name after marriage exists in every religion. Although women are not required to because of the law. The choice to change one's last name after marriage is subjective. And the Registrar violating Madhurima's right to life and personal freedom by requiring her to do so.

Letter to the NHRC from the Tribes
To,
Deputy Chairman,
National Commission on Human Rights,
Delhi, India
Date: ______________
Subject: Tribal Displacement
Distinguished Sir/Madam,
I want to bring your notice to the suffering of forest residents in the Panchmarhi Wildlife Sanctuary, Bori Wildlife Sanctuary, and Satpura National Park. These people are being displayed by the government. The government's plan infringes on the forest dwellers' civil rights. They are being deprived of their freedom to practice their religion and earn a living. Regarding the future of the forest dwellers, the government has made some alternative suggestions. We beg you to look into the situation and give these people the assistance they need.
Regards, Sir/Madam.
Regards,
[Your name] Angel
Priparia, Madhya Pradesh's Hoshangabad District
Government Response:
Two years ago, the government issued a caution to the populace.
There has been an alarming increase in wildlife killing, tree cutting, and poaching.
Additionally, environmental contamination has grown.
The government has a responsibility to safeguard vulnerable animals.
The NHRC Report
Both views are valid.
The tribal people have a long history of survival, tradition, and practice. There is a planet and an existence.
When their beliefs are suddenly uprooted and they become emotionally disturbed, they become vagrants and are forced into professions that they have never pursued.
The government's concern for the wildlife is justified. It has a responsibility to prevent the extinction of specific species.
