Civil rights are the rights that protect individuals' freedom from infringement by governments, social organizations, and private individuals, ensuring equal treatment under the law. They are extended to all citizens, regardless of race, gender, religion, or socio-economic status, and encompass various rights such as the right to vote, freedom of speech, and the right to fair trial. These rights aim to promote equality and prevent discrimination, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate fully in society.
