NHRC chairperson’s comments affirm how Modi govt has denuded constitutional institutions of their essence



The Modi government has been undermining all the institutions under the Constitution and denuding them of their essence. This was on display in the event to observe the 28th foundation day of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).The anniversary meeting was attended by both prime minister Narendra Modi and home minister Amit Shah. The prime minister, in his speech, gave his own slanted version of how human rights should be viewed. He said, “Some people have started interpreting human rights for their own angle as per their selfish interests” and “The biggest infringement of human rights takes place when they are seen from the prism of politics and political profit and loss”.It is, indeed, this selective approach to human rights that marks the Modi regime. Human rights are seen from the prism of majoritarian politics. It is this blinkered approach that makes the ruling set-up complicit with, or, blind to the violations of human rights of the minorities, particularly of Muslims, and of Dalits and Adivasis.
