Rights groups challenge India's NHRC accreditation at GANHRI

Original: India: Joint submission to GANHRI regarding review of the accreditation status of the National Human Rights Commission of India

Amnesty International, jointly with other organisations, has submitted a filing to the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions (GANHRI) concerning the review of the accreditation status of India's National Human Rights Commission. The submission questions whether the NHRC meets international standards for independence, a status that determines its standing at the UN Human Rights Council.
