  • Annual Report
    ANNUAL REPORT 2016-2017 NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION, INDIA Chairperson NHRC F o r e w o r d The National Human Rights Commission is pleased to present to the Parliament and people of India, its twenty-fourth Annual Report for the period from 01 April 2016 to 31 March 2017. 2. The National Human Rights Commission has completed 24 years of its pioneering work in the promotion and protection of human rights since its establishment on 12 October 1993 under the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993. Since then, the Commission has consistently worked towards bringing a human rights-centered approach in the Government at Central and State levels, as well as towards creating human rights awareness and sensitization amongst public authorities and civil society. Through the years, the Commission has channelized its efforts towards broadening the ambit of human rights to ensure the protection of the civil and political rights of the people as well as safeguard their economic, social, and cultural rights. 3. In a society as diverse as ours, the indivisibility and inter-connectedness of human rights, whether civil and political or economic, social and cultural, is self-evident, especially in respect of the most vulnerable, including people belonging to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Women, Children, Disabled and other vulnerable groups. The deprivation, problems and concerns that confront each of these groups, remained an important area of concern for the Commission during the period under review. 4. Accordingly, during 2016-2017, the Commission continued to intervene in matters concerning civil and political rights, on the basis of suo motu cognizance of media reports as well as complaints received.

  • Report 2011-2014 Madras High Court Report 2011 - 2014 PROFILE of SIR THIRUVARUR MUTHUSWAMY IYER - K.C.I.E
    Madras HigH Court REPORT 2011-2014 Madras High Court Report 2011 - 2014 PROFILE OF SIR THIRUVARUR MUTHUSWAMY IYER - K.C.I.E. Sir Thiruvarur Muthuswamy Iyer was born on January 28, 1832, at Uchuvadi in Tanjore District. His father Venkatanarayana Sastry lost his eyesight, when Muthuswamy was eight years old. So, his childhood was a grim struggle with poverty. He was an apprentice under a village karnam on a princely salary of a rupee per month. Tahsildar Muthusami Nayak was largely responsible for giving him English education. Endowed by nature with intelligence of a high order, he applied himself unsparingly to his studies and attained high academic distinctions and he worked his way up until he reached the highest judicial post open to an Indian. He was appointed, as a District Munsiff, and thereafter as a Deputy Collector. Justice Holloway, who had gifted him a copy of An Epitome of Alison’s History of Europe, as a token of the high esteem and regard he had for him, had to suggest three names in 1865 for an appointment as Principal Sudder Amin(Sub Judge), South Canara at Mangalore and he wrote the name of Muthuswamy Iyer thrice to mark and emphasis the exclusiveness of his choice. Muthuswamy Iyer studied for his B.L. examination when he was police Magistrate at Egmore, and passed in the first class. In April 1870, he was appointed the Third Judge, Court of Small Causes, Madras. In July 1878, when he was barely 46, he was appointed as Acting Judge, High Court of Madras. He was the first Indian to be elevated to that high office, to which, there was opposition from a section of Europeans stating that it was an innovation to appoint an Indian to the highest Court in the land, and that the experiment was bound to bring down its prestige.
