Human rights
I am not a professional HR activist but a firm believer of human rights. The other day we saw the new chairman of the HRC speaking to the press about his conviction and commitment to HR issues in Bangladesh. I regret to mention that I was not quite convinced of his idea of having their own investigative staff well trained in HR violation investigation. The reason, the police dept has eroded their public perception in conducting enquiry. This might encourage others to have their own cell for enquiry. The chairman might rethink or look for practical alternatives to mitigate HR violations, and keep aside the theoretical and academic aspects of the HR issues. The feasible alternative is to have a separate cell in the police dept and train them with the specific need of the HRC i.e. need based job oriented training and retraining.
