Representatives of various NGOs have appealed to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) to take decisive steps in preventing the abuse of children residing in childcare homes across Andhra Pradesh. During a recent meeting conducted by NHRC Chairperson Justice Arun Mishra and other members, concerns were raised regarding the mistreatment of minors in Child Care Institutions (CCIs) and incidents of trafficking.
NGOs emphasized the urgency of addressing these violations and highlighted specific cases to Justice Arun Mishra. Additionally, organizations like the Kulavivaksha Vyatireka Porata Sangham (KVPS) urged the NHRC to ensure the formation of a full bench of the Andhra Pradesh State Human Rights Commission (APSHRC) to safeguard human rights in the state.
