The Manusher Jonno Foundation (MJF) and the Bangladesh Institute of Human Rights (BIHR) yesterday hailed the government for constituting the fully fledged National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and greeted its newly appointed chairman and members. In a press release, the MJF hoped that the commission will play an active role in protecting human rights and establish itself as an effective commission. In another statement, the BIHR said the commission would work independently to check human rights violations in the country.
