Consider the following statements : 1. 'Right to the City' is an agreed human right and the UN-Habitat monitors the commitments made by each country in this regard. 2. 'Right to the City' gives every occupant of the city the right to reclaim public spaces and public participation in the city. 3. 'Right to the City' means that the State cannot deny any public service or facility to the unauthorized colonies in the city. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1. Statement 1 is incorrect. The 'Right to the City' is a concept and a political slogan emphasizing the rights of all inhabitants, especially the marginalized, to participate in and shape urban life. While related to several recognized human rights (like housing, participation), it is not itself a formally agreed human right codified in international law. Consequently, UN-Habitat promotes inclusive urban development but does not formally 'monitor commitments' by countries specifically to the 'Right to the City' as if it were a treaty obligation. 2. Statement 2 is correct. A core tenet of the 'Right to the City' concept is empowering every occupant (regardless of legal status) to use, occupy, and produce urban space. This includes the right to reclaim public spaces and demand meaningful public participation in the governance and planning of the city. 3. Statement 3 is correct. The 'Right to the City' advocates for universal access to essential urban services and infrastructure. It argues against the exclusion of marginalized groups, including residents of informal or unauthorized colonies. Therefore, the principle implies that the State should not deny essential public services or facilities to such settlements based solely on their legal status.
