This
is an incident of utter violation of rights of a child,
not only by the domestic legal laws but also contravening
the articles of UNCRC, which has been ratified by the
Indian State more than decades ago and by that having the
compulsion to ensure the rights of the children as par UN
convention on Child.
Again a girl child is most
vulnerable to infringement of her rights and here is a
case where the violation was committed by a person who
belongs to armed band of state machinery.
The incident was not an
isolated one but in rampant throughout the Indo-
Bangladesh border and taking an epidemic form.
We want to make it clear that
this is not a single case where a BSF personal molested a
girl child; it afflicted whole community residing along
the Indo- Bangladesh border.
We are concerned by the long
drawn silence of human rights institutions an
d requesting
before your office to take up the case as an example of BSF atrocities upon the minors and appropriate actions
against violation of Article 21 of Indian Constitution by
which life with dignity has been ensured not only to the
adults but minors also.
The incident violated various
articles according to the UNCRC and its mandatory
provisions which have been rested upon to the State party
to guarantee for all children and our State is a party of
that convention. |
