The statistics reveal that out of the total 94,559 cases of human rights violation last year, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) received 55,216 from Uttar Pradesh alone.
This accounts for about 58.39 per cent of the total complaints received by the Commission from across the country, followed by Delhi from where a total of 5,616 such complaints were filed till December 2008.
Gujarat, which stands third in the list, accounts for a total of 3,813 complaints of human rights violation.

Human right is hand in gloves with the persons in jail.They get sweets on each independence day but no one thinks of the person ,whose life they have made hell.
UP, Delhi and Bihar are still in the medieval ages.
now a days where ever we go,HR is follows,because of violation.i think this is the main problem for the poor people,and tribal societies a lot.in orissa KANDHMAL event is non curable disease.why this happens? is it reallty india is worst country? because of leaders, they reveal to desire some aspects.in andhrapradesh also there is an incident in paderu,which the human society is not recognise it,that is police themselves are raped the ladies where there lived in paderu.so protection of human rights is very important. otherwise we are all fall in that illness in some time,.
Nithya,The report on the HR Violations in India that appeared in the Indian Express gives a stunning revelation that the Church and the civil society did not send sufficient number of appeals to the NHRC in the event of the communal violence on Christians in Orissa. Thus, Orissa seems to go scotfree despite all the violations that took place there. This is something we need to expose.arulraj
By reading /hearing English language media, one should think that Karnataka and Orissa should top the list! UPA ruled Delhi is a haven of tranquility! Will the media and UPA/Communists stop the defamation propaganda of Hindu/Nationalists and start addressing the real issues! Hope Renuka reads this NHRC report once she is sober from her Pub drinking !
This is shameful that more than 58% complaints to NHRC are from UP alone. No doubt, the majority of these are against police officials. Should we be surprised with it? No, we should not when nothing real is being done to improve the functioning of UP Police. When any one complains against a Police official, his/her seniors tend to support the erring police official rather than the complainant. Its the police culture problem which needs to be changed. Its about the self-respect/self-esteem among the lower rank police people which needs to be worked on by educating them about human values, providing the realistic promotional opportunities, preventing them from exploitation at the hand of their seniors and instilling a sense of fairness/unfairness. It requires the genuine leadership and a new way of thinking from the police and political leadership in UP. I hope something is done soon in UP to remove it from the shameful situation as pointed out by NHRC.
No useful or meaningful comments can be made on this news which merely provides a statewise pattern analysis of human rights violations, without going into the different types of human rights violated. HR Ministry should put more mind and heart into what it does.
What? Only ONE BJP STATE in the top 6? The NHRC officials must be REPLACED immediately!
Renuka of UPA should act on UP and Mayawati for Human Right Violations (55000) highest in India instead of blaming BJP in Karnataka. Why English Media is silent ?
