• This paper makes an endeavour to impeach the historically thrived prevalent approach of generation theory that intended to revise the horizontal linkage of human rights by undermining the legal protection of economic, social and cultural rights, thereby establishing a vertical and hierarchical relationship between the civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights. The 'Rights-Based Approach' has been proposed as evidence-based tool to support the concept of justiciability of the human rights irrespective of any kinds. The trend of incorporation of socio-economic rights under the fundamental guarantees in the Constitution has been instrumental to justify the justiciability of economic, social and cultural rights. The case of countries like India has been exemplary.
