Haryana Human Rights Commission issues notices

Taking suo motu cognizance of violence during Jat quota agitation in Haryana, the state Human Rights Commission on Wednesday issued notices to authorities concerned seeking their responses even as it said it had not not received any complaint regarding alleged rape and molestation in Sonipat during the turmoil.

“So far, we have issued notices to nine authorities. On Wednesday, we issued notices to NHAI, Railways, Principal Secretary, Environment and Conservator Forests, Haryana, and the state’s Principal Secretary, Irrigation,” the Commission’s Chairperson Justice Vijender Jain (retd) told reporters here.
