Question

write a note on "national human rights commission".​

Answer 1

• NHRC is an independent commission set up by the law in 1993.

• Like the Judiciary, the commission is independent of the government.

• The commission is appointed by the President and includes retired judges, officers and eminent citizens.

• It does not bear the burden of deciding cases. So it can focus on helping the victims secure their human rights.

• These include all the rights granted to the citizens by the constitution.

• The NHRC cannot punish the guilty. That is the responsibility of the courts.

• Like any court, it can summon witnesses, question any government official, demand any official paper, visit any prison for inspection or send its own team for on-the-spot inquiry.
