The aim of this article is to explain the state of human rights of tea plantation workers as often been described as pathetic, but no concerted effort have yet been undertaken to promote the human right condition as a whole in the tea plantation areas of Sylhet. The first tea garden was established in 1854 at Malnichhara in Sylhet. Sylhet is a place of Tea gardens in Bangladesh. Two other tea gardens, such as Lalchand and Matiranga were established in 1860.Tea production in Sylhet increased with notable rapidly. There are about three lac of people are working there and 75% of the workers are female. Human rights are the fundamental rights in a democratic country. Every nation of the world must be active for the human rights of all the citizens. In this study, it is highlighted the concept of human rights initially. The human rights related laws are constructed for all workers. In a third world country like Bangladesh, bottom level worker face numerous problems and found themselves in a slavery place which creates a big gap between the owner and workers relations.The massive dilemma is researchers are not strongly paying attention and studied on the concept of basic human rights of the workers especially the tea plantation workers. So, there is no available information related to human rights of tea garden workers. On the way, only analyze social as well as economic conditions; working conditions of tea plantations workers is not appropriate. Socio-economic condition is the one kind of indicator of the human rights. Most of the researcher only focuses on the workers working situation. For this, it is the pivotal problem of the research.
