Solution
Duties and rights go hand-in-hand; there can be no rights in a society where there are no duties. Every right has a corresponding duty. For example, if we have a right to life, it is our duty to respect human life and not to injure another person. Similarly, the right to freedom implies that we have to maintain self-restraint and accord similar rights to others which we want for ourselves.
