Abstract:
Mass media's impact on fundamental rights is divided into two categories: Printed media and Electronic Media. Mass media is also synonymously used as Mass communication because its nature of communication nowadays has a significant influence on society. Because of this impact on society, most political campaigns need media coverage to reach trigger audiences and convey their manifesto. This study focuses on the ''right to information'', ''freedom of speech" and "expression", which affect fundamental rights. Day by day, as the Mass media gets more advanced with its acceptance of the risk of violating the right, people have also become a big concern. Keeping that in mind, different regulations have been passed to safeguard individuals' essential privileges. Article 39 of the “Constitution of the People's Republic of Bangladesh 1972” give a roadmap to Unitary Parliamentary Democratic Republic Governments' directions to protect citizens' right to freedom of speech, expression, and information. Provinces have legislated their right to information laws. This research paper is based on a literary survey of the facts and figures of the development of mass media and the legislation introduced to safeguard citizens' rights; the nature of the research is quantitative and descriptive in form
