ABSTRACT
Health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and is fundamental to human rights. TB affects nearly all aspects of health-physical, mental and social. The poor are vulnerable to TB and TB continues to be a stigma in large sections of society. TB is curable and an effective strategy ie, DOTS is now available. DOTS is perhaps the answer for protecting human rights of TB patients. The five components of DOTS are Political commitment, diagnosis by sputum microscopy, directly observed therapy, uninterrupted supply of drugs and accountability. TB needs to be designated by a full acknowledgment.
