NHRC reached Bihar to investigate the Saran liquor case: JDU’s allegation- calling the commission is politically motivated; BJP bid – what the government is trying to hide

The team of NHRC (National Human Rights Commission) has come to Bihar to investigate the people killed in Saran spurious liquor case. Now there is ruckus in the politics of Bihar regarding the commission’s team. The ruling party is not at all liking why the NHRC team has come to Bihar.

On Tuesday morning, Lalan Singh strongly opposed this in the Lok Sabha, while the same Upendra Kushwaha is also raising questions about the NHRC team. It is said that why the NHRC team is not investigating the incidents that happened in the BJP ruled states? Politics is being done in the name of NHRC. In such a situation, BJP leaders are saying that why the Bihar government is afraid of NHRC?

The BJP created ruckus in the winter session over the deaths due to alcohol.

Lalan Singh strongly opposes sending NHRC team to Bihar

In the Lok Sabha on Tuesday, JDU National President Lalan Singh protested strongly in the Lok Sabha for sending the NHRC team to Bihar. On the other hand, JDU Parliamentary Board Chairman Upendra Kushwaha raised questions on this autonomous institution and said that why the MHRC team is not going to the incidents happening in the BJP ruled states?

Upendra Kushwaha clearly said that if the team is coming to Chhapra, then no problem, but it should also visit those places where 150 people died in Gujarat and that too because of someone’s mistake. The NHRC team is coming politically motivated.

Upendra Kushwaha, without taking any name, said that some organization is trying to do BJP politics by sending the NHRC team here.

The Chief Minister was enraged on the question of BJP.

Sushil Modi said – Human Rights Commission is an autonomous institution

On this, former Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi said that the National Human Rights Commission is an autonomous body and it does not work on the instructions of the Central Government. The Commission has also sent an investigation team taking cognizance of incidents in BJP-ruled states.

Modi said that after the accident in Gujarat’s Morbi, the commission had also sent a notice to the state government there. He said that the Commission’s team had also gone to Agra in BJP-ruled UP and Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh to investigate mental health centers.

There were more than 70 deaths in Saran due to spurious liquor.

Modi said that when the BJP was in government in Bihar, human rights had taken cognizance of more than half a dozen cases related to spurious liquor. It then issued notices to the SPs of the respective districts and the Chief Secretary of the state seeking their reply and directed compensation up to Rs 3 lakh.

He said that the visit of the Commission’s team to investigate the death of a large number of people due to spurious liquor in Saran is also a routine process. Why is the government scared of this? He said that if the Bihar government does not want to hide anything in the matter of death due to spurious liquor, then why there is political opposition to the visit of the Commission’s team?
