Which of the following is NOT responsible for investigating complaints of violations of human rights in India?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. International Human Rights Commission.
The International Human Rights Commission is not responsible for investigating human rights violations in India. In contrast, several national bodies handle such issues. The National Human Rights Commission of India (NHRC) directly investigates complaints related to human rights violations. The National Commission for Women (NCW) addresses violations specifically against women, while the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) safeguards the rights of Scheduled Castes. The International Human Rights Commission, being an external or global body, does not have jurisdiction or authority to investigate cases within India; it may only monitor or report on human rights conditions internationally. National bodies are legally empowered under Indian law for enforcement and investigation.
