Calls to downgrade India's national human rights watchdog

Original: India's national human rights institution is failing its responsibilities and should be downgraded

Rights advocates say India's National Human Rights Commission is failing to meet its responsibilities and should be downgraded at the international level. A downgrade would signal that the body no longer complies with the Paris Principles governing independent national human rights institutions, weakening its standing at the UN and in global human rights forums.

Why now: Human rights groups are pressing for the body's international accreditation to be lowered over concerns about its independence and effectiveness.
