Achievements of NHRC Volume-I (1993-2006) |
Thirteen years is not a very long time in the life of an institution. It is, however, a time span enough to introspect and more importantly, chronicle the journey thus far. A journey that has been a myriad of emotions alternating between anguish, anger, frustration, satisfaction and almost always, deeply moving. The Commission has tried its level best to steadfastly remain focused on the fulfillment of its mandate. |
