Abstract

For many years, India has been the host of multiple refugee movements. People have traditionally valued bridging the gap between human rights and national security, which is founded on the concepts of justice, equity, dignity, and respect for one another. As the global refugee crisis persists, nations encounter increasing difficulties in tackling the humanitarian and geopolitical dimensions of forced displacement. Despite receiving an extraordinary amount of migration, India has not passed a national refugee statute or ratified any Refugee Convention. The study looks at how India, despite not having ratified the Convention, maintains both human rights and national security, two concepts that frequently conflict in international law and politics since they have a significant impact on countries worldwide.
