    Man cannot live in isolation and needs social interaction and companionship. Joining groups and associations allows individuals to socialize, develop relationships, and share ideas and opinions with others. When people with common goals and interests work together in an organization, they can achieve meaningful changes that improve society and people's lives. While freedom of association is important, it must be balanced with considerations of public order and stability in a democratic system.

    Abstract

    Man is a social animal. He cannot develop keeping himself aloof from his fellow mates in the
    community. No man can live and progress in isolation. In today’s era, a man cannot live in
    his own self made zone, reluctantand nervous or be it adamant and rigid to step into the
    outside world, having the perception that he would be able to sustain himself without social
    interaction, companionship, bonding or discussion. If a man believes so, then most evidently
    he is carrying a misapprehension in his head and definitely is living in a bubble at the same
    moment. So, these associations, clubs and groups will not only help an individual socialize
    and develop warm and cordial relations with others but also at the same time will give him an
    opportunity to put forth his own thoughts and opinions relating to any issue or a particular
    agenda in the society. When he joins a certain group or an association, the same serves as a
    helping hand to him in promotion and acknowledgement of his views, choices and interests
    and also inspires others to come ahead and share their own ideologies. People engaged in a
    certain group or in an organization having common aims and goals should strive together to
    achieve the same.

    Introduction

    The right to freedom of association is core to any society. It is an indispensable right


    in enabling citizens to monitor the human rights situation in a country and to support the
    implementation of human rights policies. It is a key for the work of human rights defenders.

    “Imagine a world without civil society. That world is bleak. Civil society has been at the
    forefront of numerous landmark political and social changes over the last decade; changes
    that have improved societies and individual lives in diverse and meaningful ways.”

    - Maina Kiai, former United Nations Special Rapporteur on the rights to


    freedom of association and peaceful assembly.

    It is also a right that is at the very heart of the Human Rights House concept. We advocate for
    the right to associate, and we live by it, experience it, and know first-hand how restrictions
    can affect associations.
    The right to freedom of association covers organised and professional organisations such as
    political parties, trade unions, public associations and non-governmental organisations with
    employees. It also covers organisations based on volunteers, and covers groups and entities
    with or without a legal personality. States have an obligation to ensure that people are free to
    form and participate in associations of any type and to engage independently in any legal and
    lawful activity. This includes being able to seek and receive resources, to organise and to
    peacefully promote and protect human rights.

    Content

    Restrictions are not limited to expression. The freedoms of assembly and association are
    frequently violated too. In recent years authorities in the Russian Federation, Moldova,
    Romania, Poland and Latvia have banned pride marches and tolerance and equality
    assemblies. Authorities have also refused to register LGBT organisations in a number of
    countries, including Mongolia, Botswana, Lesotho, and Turkey. The European Court has
    consistently held that even shocking or disturbing ideas are protected by the rights to freedom
    of association and peaceful assembly. In Baçzkowski v. Poland and Alekseyev v. Russia, the
    European Court found that denying LGBT groups permission to assemble peacefully violated
    the right to assembly protected by the Convention, and also violated the right to non-
    discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.

    Grounds on which this freedom gets restricted:

    1. Sovereignty and Integrity of India: To safeguard the sovereignty of the country the freedom
    to form association can be restricted. This freedom will also be restricted if it causes any
    disturbance or affects the oneness of the country .
    2. Public Order: To maintain safety, public peace, order and tranquility of the country, the right
    to form association can be restricted.
    3. Morality: This freedom can be restricted if any of the individual’s activities involve
    indecency or obscenity.

    The right to form association includes the right to form companies, societies, partnerships,, trade
    union and political parties. The right guaranteed is not merely the right to form association but
    also to continue with the association as such. The freedom to form association implies also the
    freedom to form or not to form, to join or not to join , an association or union.

    Conclusion

    Therefore, we can conclude that these associations, clubs, groups and other organizations do
    indeed play a significant role in an individual’s life. They also play a major part in
    determining his perception and persuades him to have a broader vision and a widened
    approach towards everything happening in the society. But at the same time, it is the duty of
    the citizens to ensure that in the due course of formation of a particular association as well as
    during the time span of the membership, harmony, discipline and order continues to persist in
    the society. It is important to take into consideration that the same does not give rise to
    breach of public peace. The citizens while exercising this fundamental right should also see
    to it that the stability of the society is maintained. It is also necessary that the formation or
    participation and even continuation of these different associations do not act as a barrier or an
    obstacle in the progress and development of the country. If at all the goal or the motive of the
    people engaged in them is evil or ulterior the same will result in causing an imbalance in the
    democratic system.

    “These associations should head towards awakening the masses and inspiring them to
    take the initiative for building up a brighter future for the nation.”
