Bihar State Human Rights Commission should not hobnob with violators

I saw with disbelief if not horror a news-item published today in an English daily informing about the participation of the Chairman and Member of the State Human Rights Commission Bihar in a training programme for SIs in the human rights. The news paper cited two IPS officers as notable resource persons in the programme. One has been himself the violator of human rights during his postings at Patna as DIG and IG in the RJD jungle raj. A full-fledged inquiry could never be conducted against him because of a nexus among all the pillars of the system. I have detailed in my blog “NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION a drain on public exchequer, an (un)necessary evil” about the nature of the powerful connections enjoyed by such officers in today’s corrupt and hypocritical society.
The human rights authorities must keep themselves away from the company of elements whose track-record of human rights has been horrible
